This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at TCNJ chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

“Women should avoid dressing likes sluts in order not to be victimized.”

These words were spoken by a Toronto police officer at a law school in April 2011, sparking a wave of “SlutWalks” across the United States. The movement came to TCNJ’s campus last week, when students marched together through campus to voice the message that no matter what a person is wearing, they do not deserve to be sexually abused or raped.

Jessica is one half of the fantastic duo founding Her Campus on the leafy suburban campus that is The College of New Jersey. A Journalism major and Communications minor in the Class of 2012, she is a native of Pennsylvania and an adoptive resident of New Jersey. That's why she can't fist pump, but can pump gas. Before Her Campus, Jessica was a newspaper reporter, communications assistant and world traveler, having studied and interned abroad in London. When she's not writing or talking up a storm, Jessica can be found bargain shopping, catching up on a good book, fiddling with her camera or attempting to stay in shape. Other passions include hummus, tickling those ivories on the piano, meeting new people and all things Her Campus.
