When should moral outrage trump professional respect?

I can't believe people are even asking this question... moral outrage ALWAYS trumps 'professional respect.' Without morality there can be no respect, professional or otherwise.

As for the professor's books- take the proceeds he was making on the book and put them in this kid's education fund.

When should moral outrage trump professional respect? "But the professor was doing such a good job."

"This child rape thing was in his private life."

"Who are we to cast stones? None of us is without some sin."

"His actions don't rise to the level of a crime given that a poll of the professors shows they support him."

"Hockey dad only got six years---and this kid is still alive so the professor deserves probation."

What a bunch of moral midget these professors are.

Nice to see that Yale is striving to keep up with harvard in its race to the bottom of the ethical barrel. Blue-Zone profs have been covering for each other for years.

At one point in the last couple years nearly a dozen faculty from Harvard Medical School were under scrutiny for sexual and other forms of malpractice.

Doris Kearns Goodwin covered for one female prof whose perverted molestations drove a young male patient to suicide in a notorious case.

Life is so sophisticated out East.
