I tend to agree with a commentator that I heard today who suggested firing and prosecuting the entire staff plus bulldozing the locker rooms where it happened.

Further, I see no reason on earth why so called institutions of higher learning need to maintain professional sports teams at all.

Thorstein Veblen said he wanted to give his book about American universities, The Higher Learning in America,, the subtitle: A Study in Total Depravity.

Little did he know.

The University of Chicago dropped its football team decades ago and they still get some favorable notice now and then...even if they did hire a totally unqualified adjunct to teach constitutional law some years ago because of political pressure.
