As sick as I am of hearing about it already, the situation has provided a variety of good things including the notion of a "nice guy" sexual predator who is nobody's friend. Additionally, in a uniquely unfunny move, Jon Stewart attacks the riots that happened in the wake of the firing. An outstanding response to a hideous public response indicative of a frequent and terrible institutional response to sexual abuse. In light of how difficult sexual assault is to prosecute, a little community support would have gone a long way. Now these kids have to deal with a riot supporting someone who looked the other way. If their names enter the public record, are they going to get harassed?
Fortunately, RAINN has put together something for people who want to be proud of their college while still supporting the victims. Good news.
