Maybe they should have thought of that before they slandered a business run by honest people who simply wanted justice for a wrong done to them?

All they had to do was nothing and that would have happened.

These fascist bastards truly have no clue that they deserve this. It’s just some vindictive right wingers picking on them because they are forward thinking progressives.

Honestly, this man has no idea that the college is at all responsible for the situation in which it finds itself.

How can one expect remorse or a “learning from experience” from people that sincerely believe they can do no wrong? They are clearly irrational.

Perhaps you should have apologized for being major jerks and trying to ruin their business?

I will not even suggest that you could have behaved like rational humans in the first place because that is beyond most academics.

All bad choices. Gibson’s will use the money productively. Too bad it wasn’t 300 million.

All the “College” had to do was to apologize, for their slander, early on. But the arrogant, sanctimonious SOBs refused to do so. Oberlin deserves to be crushed for their attempts to destroy this Bakery. They probably sent the owner to an early grave due to their slanderous attacks.

I hope there is an even bigger lawsuit judgment against them somewhere in their future.

"...Note also that the $36 million cost of Oberlin College’s campaign against Gibson’s Bakery equals a gift of $900 from every member of Oberlin’s alumni, fewer than half of whom give anything today..."

I am sure part of it is because they pump out Leftist drones, and we all know Leftists are notoriously self-centered, stingy a-holes.

And part of it might be those who attended your "college" and managed not to get brainwashed, are appalled at your actions.

I wonder how much the “underpaid members of the full-time faculty” are being paid?

Then we can decide for ourselves if they truly are “underpaid.”

I believe Oberlins costs were covered by an insurance policy.

Absolutely no sympathy here. Justice delayed is justice denied, successfully in this case for the two Gibsons who died during the long protracted process, and Oberlin was trying every dirty legal trick in the book to stretch it still further. If the past president of the college here is implying that it never should have happened, he’s right. It was a shameful, opportunistic drive to destroy a family business through a lie based on the assumption that Oberlin was too big to challenge. Frankly I’d have doubled the damages after all this time, and it would still not be enough.

Underpaid faculty? Compared to who? The average salary of a full professor at Oberlin is $147,000 a year. Not shabby. My guess is that most Oberlin Professors work 24/7.
24 hours a week, seven months a year.

This almost reads like a dig against Oberlin. ie, “Instead of defaming Gibson, you could have spent that $36M for xyz”

Clearly it took a well compensated and salaried genius to figure this out.

Mr. Starr, it would be wonderful if your college hiring board was mentally equipped enough to hire competent administrators this may not of happened. Unfortunately, it is likely you hired the PHD woke narcissists and sociopaths that hire the incompetents that caused the loss of 36 million dollars in the first place. A six year old can understand if you have nothing nice or useful to say to STFU.
