Today's OneWord: Punished
I was being punished for telling the truth. For uncovering the scandal. For looking at the dean straight in the eye and telling her, "You screwed up. You screwed it up for me. You screwed it up for her. You screwed it up for us. For everyone." Now, I was being expelled for that truth. Not because I did anything wrong - but because I had the "audacity" to call someone out for her own mistakes and even more heinous actions. I walked away from that university, however, with my head up.
