An Oberlin College student described being “scared” and “angry” after the school announced a work crew would be installing radiators in a “safe space” dormitory for women and trans students
"In general, I am very averse to people entering my personal space. This anxiety was compounded by the fact that the crew would be strangers, and they were more than likely to be cisgender men."
"It was clear that the College had not made a special request that male workers not be allowed onto the upper floors of Baldwin," the student continued. Fray-Witzer asked a representative of the college - who he called"Polo Man" because he was wearing a"neat polo" - who accompanied the crew if he could reject getting the radiator installed. The college emissary apparently said no, and the student left for class to allow the work crew to make the dorm improvements.
