Outsider:  You obviously don't like the results.  However, the University followed its policies and procedures very carefully in disciplining these three young men.  This was a very high-profile case and, rest assured, the University administration and legal counsel worked diligently to protect themselves from claims of unfair treatment.  The dismissal was based on the inability of Mr. Michaels to establish procedural deficiencies in the disciplining of the three young men.  Hyperbole regarding some secret personal motivations of the administrators doesn't change that.  regards, Gary Crum
