Were you ever sexually harassed in college by another student?

My story ღ When I was at the university, there was a foreign exchange student who harassed me. He was from Austria. I didn't even know he existed, until he came up and introduced himself to me during the semester registration process. I didn't really think anything about it. A few weeks later, he ended up in one of my classes. At first, overtime he saw me in the class, around campus and would smile and want to talk with me, but I kind of would just ignore him. He was tall, blond (think Ken the Barbie) and a lot of girls would be throwing themselves at him. I just didn't have any interest in him. Overtime, he began to say "hi" & approach me more and more frequently and I noticed he began to look at my body front and back as I passed by him. He would compliment me at times, I just would ignore him. At times, he would be with his friends in the classroom and ask me to sit with him (I would ignore him and sit somewhere else) and he would then laugh. The final straw-- During a lab class, he took the opportunity to come and sit right next me. This class was cramped, so I could not change seats. He started flirting and I just ignored him. All of a sudden, he tried to put his hand on my thigh and smile. I got up instantly and said, "Don't you ever touch me again!" and instantly left the room. I was shocked, stunned and felt out of place. I went directly to the Women's Center and reported this incident and told them about his flirting as well. He was removed from the class and I only saw him once afterwords and when he saw me, his face reddened and he turned right around and didn't enter the room I was in. In retrospect, I think he was staring at me in the classroom and even though other women would approach him and talk with him, they just didn't see the CREEP-PERVERT that I saw in him. Some women classmates would even say what a nice guy and how cute he was! WHAT? LOL! GEEZ! This guy was a MAJOR PERVERT TO ME! Just because some women think a man is good looking, doesn't mean this guy can't be a pervert or gives a pass to be a pervert.
