In response to dperry
Some people jumped all over Montague during the early days of the alleged scandal without facts - guilty as charged? Very serious allegations indeed that required a thorough and unbiased investigation so that the correct decision would be made by Yale although it is very challenging to make the proper decision in this type of case. Yale, like any university, needs to be careful as what actions they take as litigation is always a distinct possibility from either side. Does not surprise me that Yale ultimately decided to settle this matter and it may be for a substancial amount.
Everyone in this country should have a presumption of innocense but if they commit a crime or wrongdoing, there should obviously be consequences that fit the crime.
In a serious but less consequential matter, Princeton appears to have taken its time in the Cannady matter but due process is important. Princeton did receive some criticism in their handling which is not unusual,
Hopefully but perhaps unlikely, there will be less of a rush to judgement in the future -- we can only hope. Let the facts drive the correct outcome.
