Speak up girls , it's high time

A few days ago, I posted about my uncomfortable experience with a staff member from the Exam Division, and honestly, I never expected the post to get the kind of response it did. The support, messages, and people sharing their own experiences genuinely meant a lot to me.

But at the same time, something about it has honestly been heartbreaking too.

Reading the comments and DMs from so many girls sharing even worse experiences with professors, staff members in the university genuinely disturbed me. Some of the things I read were honestly devastating.

And it made me think — if on a platform like Reddit, where not even that many students from college are active, THIS many experiences and allegations are coming out, then what must the actual ground reality be?

That thought genuinely scares me.

And honestly, if these things keep getting ignored and nobody speaks up, situations in the future can become even worse. I genuinely do not want any of my batchmates, juniors, or future students of this university to go through creepy, uncomfortable, or unsafe experiences inside their own campus environment.

So I want this post to be a safe space for girls to speak up.

If you’ve ever had uncomfortable, creepy, inappropriate, or unprofessional experiences involving professors, university staff, guards, administration, etc., and you’re comfortable sharing them, please do.

Even if you already commented under my previous post, you can comment here again.

I know this may not be an official record, but at least this thread can become an informal space where students become aware, support each other, and know who and what to stay cautious around.

Please speak up if you can. I genuinely feel many students have been silently tolerating things for way too long.

Got harassed in the exam devision by a man (with proof)

I honestly don’t know if I’m overreacting or not, but this entire experience left me extremely disturbed and disappointed, especially in a girls’ college where you expect at least a safe and professional environment.

I had a supplementary exam/back paper. I had already registered for it, but I wasn’t receiving any confirmation mail or details regarding the exam, so I went to the Exam Division to confirm whether my registration had been successful or not.

Raman Davesh sir wasn’t there at that time, but a man named Varun, who sits in that office, asked me what the issue was. I explained everything to him, and he asked for my phone number saying that he would send me the exam details and confirmation on WhatsApp/message because I was clearly panicking about my back exam.

Since I was stressed and worried, I trusted him and gave him my number only for academic communication.

But instead of sending me the required details, he started texting me weird and uncomfortable messages, reacting creepily to my statuses, and trying to continue unnecessary conversations. (Attaching screenshots below.)

The worst part is that he NEVER actually informed me properly about my exam registration status.

A few days later, I again went to the Exam Division, and Raman sir told me that there was NO successful registration for my supplementary exam. I was genuinely devastated. Because of this entire negligence, I lost crucial academic time and had to suffer mentally and academically for months.

I kept thinking that maybe the issue was resolved because I had already contacted the office and was waiting for the “details” that were supposedly going to be sent to me.

But instead, I got creepy messages.

And unfortunately, it didn’t even stop there.

After few months I got selected for an internship and again had to visit the Exam Division for a character certificate. After that too, he started messaging me things like:

“How did you get DRDO?”

“Party kab de rahe ho?”

and other unnecessary personal messages.

At that point I blocked him completely.

I’m posting this because the entire thing genuinely felt humiliating and uncomfortable. Maybe some people will think these are “small things,” but when you’re already academically stressed, dealing with repeated creepy behaviour from someone in an administrative position feels horrible.

What disappoints me the most is that students go to administrative offices for help during vulnerable situations, and instead of professionalism, this is the kind of behaviour some people have to deal with.

And honestly, if students can’t even feel safe or comfortable in a girls’ college environment, then where exactly are we supposed to feel safe?

Has anyone else experienced something similar in college ? Because I highly doubt I’m the only one.
