Not so. Only Spanier and Paterno were fired. Curley and Schultz are only on a leave of absence. And McQueary is still there.
The house wasn't swept quite so clean, was it?
Observing the fall of mankind, and who it is that falls, and why he falls, when and how and so on, becomes a venture into self, doesn’t it? With the story still new and still unfolding, some of us are noisy reactionaries who seem to get the whole picture at once, but who can turn out to be quite wrong, and there are others of us who are the sentimental saps who interminably delay connecting the dots, facing the facts.
I liked the point Phil L. makes on “sentiment”. I probably tend to fall into that catagory, but hopefully when faced with facts many of us can cross that bridge and wake up.
Spanier was only ousted as President. From what I've read, both he and his wife still hold tenured professor positions at the university.
