In response to james
So you choose a blog from a Trumpist to "prove" your point? What's particularly amusing about it is the subcolumn on the right of the page entitled "The Civility Problem." For that is exactly what got Montague expelled. For Montague to shove a paper plate down the shirt of a female classmate and not have enough civility when he was again sober to apologize and foster relationships with classmates rather than "conquests" evidences the same kind of character flaw as the final episode. The kid simply did not know how to relate to women as equals, a characteristic sadly common among the Trumpist set, including its Dear Leader. The reason Yale settled indeed was a potential flaw in its process---but that had nothing to do with the guilt or innocence of Montague himself. That is why, despite a payment of money to Montague, Yale apparently made sure he did not get a Yale degree. And yes, the value of that degree is enormous. So you can call him a winner---it does not appear that there were any winners to me. And again, as I said from the start, the problem was his lack of civility more than anything else.
