During the trial last summer, an expert witness hired by Oberlin declared that Gibson's Bakery was only worth $35,000, and cited this "fact" as evidence that millions of dollars worth of damage couldn't have been done to the business.

This article claims a much higher valuation for Gibson's Bakery, and cites this as evidence for the same contention.

If they weren’t claiming damages to the other properties, how is the value of other properties relevant?

Oberlin is grasping at straws to try and avoid a first class spanking.

Does the Gibson property include the home(s)?

This is immaterial. The college played the destruction card with the bakery and it backfired. Pay up.

And the reported Gibson assets aren’t significant. That much money will buy two or three modest houses in much of America.

Correct. There is no relevance. It is just a lame effort to beat down the damages award. Here is a family that has been in business for three generations in a town, it is nothing out of the ordinary for them to own a couple of million dollars worth of Real Estate.

So it’s heads we win, tails you lose then.

BTW, you can support the Gibsons by buying T-shirts and other merchandise through their website.

Oberlin translated from Indian means: “Gonna pay through the nose”.

Another low-IQ sort promoted way beyond her abilities by affirmative action. That just cost Oberlin 33 million dollars.

I'm sure her presence makes the "Oberlin Community" feel real good about themselves. Who can put a price tag on that, I just ask you that.

Until she says it was a dog whistle ruling or something like that and refuse to pay.

Obviously, they are rich, and don’t need any more money; they should, in fact, donate to the college /< barfsarc >

What a bunch of slimy commie liberal maggots.

What the Gibson’s have accumulated by hard work has absolutely ZERO bearing on the damage done and sanctioned by Oberlin.

This college deserves to die and disappear.

This article is revolting in the way it tries to build class envy. Pure communism. What a bunch of lousy scum. If anything the court should revisit the case and raise the judgement against oberlin.

They could sell out and then the whole family could pitch in to collectively buy...a small house in L.A.

I was recently referred to an Endocrinologist by my physician. The E doctor was in the big local med conglomerate. In discussions I realized this minority person didn’t know their butt from a cork pistol. Obviously got into med school thru AA. I eased my way out the door; and subsequently found an independent E doctor who is very helpful. I’ve been called a male chauvinist pig. But this E doctor I found is a lady, and very professional.

From her web page at the college:

MAY 2, 2018
Oberlin College President Carmen Twillie Ambar spoke about the importance of taking risks on a podcast featuring women leaders

Risk big, lose big.
