“So where is the outrage over Kristin?”

Sleeping her way to the top appears to be her MO.

I’ve encountered many of these over the years, both as a university professor and business owner. Integrity is like virginity, you can only lose it once.

It was really hard (no pun intended) when I began teaching full time at the university at age 26 and single when my students were 20 to 22. You can’t imagine the offers you get for grades. Thankfully, I never succumbed to the temptation.

Correction, only one time did I falter as I got married and my wife took a class I was teaching. She was not a student at the university when I married her.

I actually turned down a fully qualified young woman for employment in my firm as she was absolutely beautiful. I could feel the temptation during the interview and knew that there was no way I could have her working for me. The temptation would have been too great. Her beauty was not just her outward appearance.

I remember Ross Perot’s statement about Bill Clinton, “If your wife, who is supposed to be the closest person to you, can’t trust you, “How can I trust you to do a business deal with you.”

I was a college professor and a business owner. I’m still waiting for those offers of favors for grades. All I ever got was a line outside my door crying and whining for a better grade. If they got a C they wanted a B. If they got a B they wanted an A. 🙄

I think women are attracted to power (money, prestige) like men are to arm candy. That IMO is more likely her downfall.
