<p>Hazmat - that was rude. Just saying.</p>
<p>dmd77:
You will find an informative summation of the lacrosse “incident” and its long-reaching consequences in the article “A Spring of Sorrows” in the Duke magazine. See link. </p>
<p><a href=“Duke Mag”>Duke Mag;
<p>It does a good job of laying out the many reasons for the public’s fascination with this story. </p>
<p>Also, interestingly, it’s pretty clear that Duke as an institution is shouldering its share of responsibility for student behavior. Note Brodhead’s appointment of a slew of committees to examine the issue and his goal of initiating a longer term effort “fueled by the committment to take the ethical dimension of education much more seriously than heretofore.”</p>
<p>Personally, I hope that Duke’s prominence in the world of higher education will mean that many other colleges will follow suit.</p>
<p>Oops. Didn’t hit preview first. I’ll post it again when I find the link that works.</p>
