I have not heard anything about the Duke Lacrosse case recently. Here is something to get Howlin' and the gang fired up. I would expect no less from Dear Old Duke.

These "campus divides" relate not only to long-standing issues of race and gender but also separations with respect to social privilege, athletics, and campus-community relations. Two broad objectives were clearly identified. We seek to find specific and constructive ways to promote respect and responsibility and to lessen campus divides. Our shared goal is a stronger and more inclusive community.

OK, I'll bite. In the interest of promoting equality and reducing social privilege, I propose that all university faculty and administrators be treated equally with all students. No more of the artificial, classist, hierarchical, and unequal treatment that students have received at the hands of the faculty and administration for too long. Might want to send them to reeducation classes, too. After all, this initiative is clearly Marx-inspired, so don't hold back, give it the full Maoist Cultural Revolution treatment that is the logical goal and end of all such movements...

Demonstrating yet again the wisdom of Buckley's dictum:

"I would rather be governed by the first 100 people whose names appear in the Boston telephone book than by the faculty of Harvard [Duke]."

They could start by demating an apology from the gang of 88.

Oh, they won't do that?

Then screw them.
