so, red and black, have you learned that as journalists not to believe everything legal affairs or the university wants you to believe?

HERE IS WHAT A PREVIOUS EDITORIAL BOARD AT RED AND BLACK WROTE (OUR TAKE) GOTTA NEW TAKE??

"Will young women feel ill at ease with a professor who has been found to be a harasser? Will Soloski be paranoid that anything he says or does could be taken as a repeat offense?

It doesn't seem like an ideal arrangement for either. It doesn't even seem fair to either.

A year is a long time. And $196,000 is a lot of money.

Perhaps it would be best for all concerned if Soloski used that time and money to make a new start somewhere else.

Given the present circumstances and the likelihood of future bad feelings why would he want to come back anyway?"

sexist, drunk? we'd have to do more than round up the usual suspects if we were to corral all the men and women who fit that description.

Sara,
Your mother must be so proud.

Also, if you will look at the first paragraph of the court documents it states, "While the plantiff acknowledges having made the comments. . ." Therefore, there were no false accusations made.
