yea, looking past football, whoever made that decision needs to be let go.

I'm sorry, I get the whole innocent until proven guilty thing but it's ridiculous that they couldn't come up with a better solution than what boils down to "Well if you don't want to be in a class with him, you need to change yourself." (at least this is going by the Texas Monthly article)

It is a difficult position for the school to be put in. They need to support the victim as best as possible (which Baylor failed to do) without showing favorites. If they let the victim do whatever they want (this of course being before a conviction) then you could end up with a situation like mattress girl at Columbia. Now Columbia faces a lawsuit from the accused rapist for taking mattress girls side and favoring her.
