Agreed, he had NOTHING to apologize for, why can't people just accept the truth for what it is and get over themselves.
She didn't really apologise. She is basically saying, "gee, I'm sorrry that my pointing out that your nose looks like a potatoe made you eat a whole half gallon of ice cream."

Now the PC sharks sense weakness and will continue to circle him until he's done for.
If he believes in what he said--and I think he does--he should stand his ground, which might well spark a public debate on the subject.
He might still lose his job, but at least he and his ideas would be respected.
Spineless academic--these are women, for Pete's sake!
Stand on your hind legs and fight back instead of groveling.
Had he only done like his boss, become President, and raped a bunch of people, NOW wouldn't have uttered a peep.
Conversely, had Larry's secretary been servicing him under his desk, and had that fact leak out by some other third party - again, no problem.
But he's white, he's male, and he's only President of Harvard. Say goodbye Larry.
