SEATTLE - University of Washington student Erin Clavadetscher says two of her classmates have been mugged on or near campus and a third was recently jumped and beaten up for no apparent reason.
A sexual assault in a fraternity early Saturday followed by a mugging on fellow UW student Sam McHaney and his friend has her scared, and angry that more isn't being done to curb the violence.
"Even though there have been arrests and they say that they’re doing things it’s just not happening. There’s not that like fear of getting in trouble any more,” said Erin.

Amherst College Student Stabbed Multiple Times

Amherst College Student Stabbed Multiple Times
Date: February 8, 2009
Amherst, MAUnited States of America
Students have told the media that a fight broke out during the party, and that usually the parties are not violent at all. As a student from a nearby college, I agree that there is not much violence on the local campuses, however many of the local colleges, including Amherst have open parties that are often dangerously over-crowded.
Amherst is well known as a highly regarded academic institution, but in the area Amherst is also known as a great destination for parties. Unlike some of the neighboring schools, Amherst does not have much security at their parties, meaning anyone can walk in and join in on the fun.
Because of their reputation for throwing great parties, Amherst seemed like a great place to go on a Saturday night. I have gone to two parties at the dorms at Amherst, and both were terrible disasters. While no one was nearly killed while I was there, I will definitely never go to a party there again.
The first time I went to a party at Amherst, it was the middle of winter and I went with one friend. We were able to simply walk into the dorms and join the party. The rooms were incredibly dark and so crowded that it was almost impossible to walk through them. During the middle of the party, the fire alarm went off and we all had to stand outside in the freezing cold. After a few minutes, my friend and I just gave up and went home. If the party on Saturday was as crowded as the party I attended, it seems very plausible that someone could get stabbed and people would not even notice.

UT student assaulted, run over

UT student assaulted, run over
10:24 PM CST on Wednesday, February 4, 2009
By NOELLE NEWTONKVUE News
A UT student is robbed then run over. Police fear the next assault could have a more tragic ending.
In the early morning hours of January 19th Delaina Leroy was walking to her car at the corner of 4th Street and the southbound lanes of IH 35 when she says her purse was ripped from her shoulder.
"My car was literally parked where that green truck is. I was so close to being safe," said Leroy.
“There was enough force to break my watch.”
She was in the moment of fight or flight. She chose to fight and ran after the man who she can only describe as Hispanic.
"My keys were in there, my phone my wallet,” she said.
When they got to the corner of 5th Street and Sabine, she says he jumped into the passenger side of an older model maroon Chevy Impala with a large white oval shaped decal with flames on the rear window.
"He proceeded to peel out and hit me and that's when I rolled over his hood and my arm got stuck under his wheel and he ran over it," she said.
APD Detective Kevin Covington is worried these violent thieves may strike again.
"No one stopped to help. No one called with witness information," said Covington. “If they do it again, somebody could be killed or badly, badly injured so we definitely want to get them identified."
Leroy still cannot use her left hand due to a fracture and tissue damage. Her knee is also injured, but she says the physical pain is nothing in comparison to the emotional damage.
"It really rattles my safety and my sense of security and my overall independence. There are so many people out there that could be in potential danger," she said.
