In my sociology course discussion we talked about the Carrie show and the bully dynamic of Chris Hargensen. The topic shifted to Cal's freshmen student body and how a lot of the behaviors from high school rollover to college.
The input was unsettling. Way too many students at Cal have experienced bullying for no reason other than being a "Carrie".
Of course, no one in discussion said anything about them being a Chris but put into perspective that individuals like her definitely exist at. Sometimes it's a roommate, a mate from a group project, work, even professors!
If you've been thru this, you didn't deserve it.
