Duke AD: School Made Right Decisions In Lacrosse Case

In other news:

1. Cheney supports Bush policy.

2. Democrats support Lamont.

3. Bishops support belief Jesus was the son of God.

ADs work for University presidents. ADs for the most part don't have tenure and they certainly DO NOT have tenure as AD. So how is it news for some to claim his boss made the right decision?

We were trying to get back and get out of the lightning and the thunder, and we had an accident. And that's basically what happened."...

Yeah, that's the ticket

Those things are never in the story.

Gee, Alleva, YA THINK????

I am in a bad mood tonight. One of those bad moods that has no reason.
