Cal State Long Beach grad student Colle Carpenter was the victim of a violent on-campus attack, however the school has since been criticized for how they handled the incident according to LA Now. Carpenter, who is transgendered, was confronted in a campus restroom by his attacker, who then "pulled Carpenter's T-shirt over his shoulders and head and used a sharp object to slash his chest.

It's really sad indeed. Looking on the bright side, at least we don't have a murder. Btw, does anyone else think that sketch is incredibly creepy looking?
