Stalking is a crime-- it is unwanted, intentional, and repeated threats of any kind that cause reasonable fear.

Find out if what you're experiencing is stalking, and how to handle it. Stop by the booth outside the ABU cafeteria this January 23-27, 2017 to get information about these questions, and a stalking documentation log for your personal use.

Or, contact Chad Hostetler, the Director of Counseling Services, at [email protected] or at (304) 457-6320 for free, confidential help in figuring out how to best handle this type of situation.
