Priya Adusumilli, psychology and communications seinior, and president of Sigma Sigma Rho talked about why the topic of domestic violence is so important. “It’s a taboo topic, especially since domestic violence happens with people that you know and it’s like your relationships and you don’t want to mess those relationships up,” said Adusumilli “Even if you don’t talk about it there are people that care about you and they want to help and you just have to take that one step to let them help you.” Dhatri Nandyala, human biology and biomedical lab science sophomore set up the event in order to bring light to such a sensitive topic. “It was to bring light to the issue that people are so taboo about, even yesterday when we had people take a pledge against it, most people felt uncomfortable,” said Nandyala. With an issue like domestic violence, some people don’t know a lot about and who can be affected by it. The event helped open the eyes of students that may not know much about the topic.
