Good post - thanks

Another reason why Nifong should not only resign, but should be prosecuted also. And the Duke president has some 'splainin' to do too!

The good news I want to hear from Duke university is that its President and 88 professors have been censured or fired.

All 47 men on the team—many of whom weren’t even at the party where the alleged attack occurred—had worked their entire lives to earn a spot in a national championship contending program. It is no small thing to play on a team like that. That’s years of fall ball seasons, three-hour practices, backyard training sessions, weight-lifting, parental support and money spent, all gone in a fizzle at the whim of a spineless college president.

Unfortunatley he's like just about every other college President. The few that do try and stand up top the PC nonsense get their heads handed to them - ask Larry Summers.

If I were any athlete, I'd be waving goodbye to duke and it's faculty with one finger. Screw the rest of the athletic programs when the school has no compunction about treating students in the manner it did.

History will be kind to those kids, and not to the university's president and his ilk. As for Nifong, he is history already.

As long as there is one single charge against the three players, there is NO good news at all. NONE!

Duke went over the hill when they got that big infusion of money and decided they wanted to compete with Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. The symptom of that was putting Stanley Fish in charge of the English Department.

Finally they fired Fish because things were in complete turmoil, but instead of fixing it they managed to put a committee in charge that hired a bunch of people who made things even worse.

The English department was the most notorious, but pretty much everything else went to the dogs, too. It seems as if every formerly respectable college in the country is rushing to see who can climb further down the sewer first.
