(WITNESS STATEMENT)

To whom ever it may concern, August 18, 2011

Donna had come back to class and asked me to go with her to the financial aid office on our next break, she said to me that they keep trying to get her to sign for different loans that did not apply to her and that they were giving her a hard time and she was feeling intimidated. So I went with her and spoke to Carol Swanson, immediately she seemed annoyed with our presence. Donna was questioning her about why her paper said "graduate" at the top instead of "repack" and why the dates were from February when she was signing it in June. Carol shuddered and never really answered Donna's question and Carol just rolled her eyes and told her not to worry about all of that and told her she just needs to sign it, she was almost yelling at this point. After signing the paper, Donna asked for a copy of everything she just signed, Carol let out a big sigh, and rolled her eyes and said something like "OH MY GOD". I was very uncomfortable with the whole situation and I know Donna was too, financial aid is supposed to be there to help us and explain things properly and that is not what it felt like at all. It seemed like Carol was annoyed with her because Donna was pointing out misleading information which will ultimately affect Donna in the long run financially. Donna is still stressed out about this situation and she even hates seeing Carol around campus because of her dealings with her. Donna also took me by the presidents office about three weeks later so that I could tell Connie what had happened but she did not really want to hear what I had to say, which is what I thought the president is there for.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
