basically i'm awfully afraid of being spiked after seeing it happen to my friend not too long ago. lucky we were surrounded by people we knew at the time - but now i'm worried going clubbing with people i barely know?! no one will have a trustworthy friend group that early on that they know would help them out if things went wrong, so how does any of welcome week work safely?? i've also heard from locals that exeter is particularly bad for women's safety, and as much as i appreciate honesty that's making me even nervous! i was thinking of signing up for events at one of the campus clubs because i'd feel safer doing that, especially with them being closer to accommodation, but still apprehensive...
