F—ing kill you," scrawled across his message board. "I came out when I was 15,". Larabee said. "This is the first time I'e ever beep truly afraid. I don't feel safe walking out at night ...it's violating." An international studies major and resident adviser for Wallace Res- idence Center, this was not the first time Larabee has been harassed. at the University of Idaho. As a fresh- man he said he endured a similar sit- uation, although in that instance the erpetrator didn't leave a threat be- ', so he chose not to tell anyone. "It's so easy to get stuck in a ste- reotype," he said. "It bothered me, but I just told myself to move past Kppg it.I know I'm not the only one who' made that decision." Larabee .-. x4pj.g$ ever '«a@iisf Larabee said he was embarrassed when he first saw the message and reported the inci- dent to his supervisors, who called the Moscow Police Department. It is currently unknown who left the mes- sage —but the action qualifies as a hate crime, which is a felony. In response to the incident, University Housing put cameras in the surrounding hallway. Dee Dee Kanik- keberg, associate director of universzty residences, said the cameras would only be placed in public areas in re- sponse to the "appalling" incident. "It's deeply concerning that someone has been threatening within our community," Kanikkeberg said. "We work hard to create a safe environment, and we ar' going to protect it." In addition to working as'n RA, Larabee works as a staff member in the Women's Center. Rebecca Rod, GLBT program adviser, said after working with Lara- bee for the past two years, she was particularly hurt f'ee.THREAT,, when she heard what happened to him. page,6 .
