The OFF-CAMPUS part is really under-reported and minimized. That is huge.
The N&O is constantly calling for disciplinary action by Duke.. I think because it's faster than the justice system. If I'm not mistaken.. A columnist in the N&O (Ruth Sheehan) called for the Lacrosse program to be shut down, and within days Duke took action ...
That's what is outrageous to me, too. This is a police matter, not a university matter. I don't think Duke had the right to suspend the lax season over this nor do I think they have this big burning responsibility to do anything in particular. If it had allegedly occurred on the campus, that would be completely different, but the party took place in a private residence off campus.
