It's great that this story has been out there for the last few weeks and the Mirror is finally now covering it. Way to attribute the "rumors" to a freshman student who faced a traumatic experience and was still coping with the ordeal during the interview. Todd Beamer has a terrible track record when it comes to dealing with student bullying that probably contributed to the"rumors". How about the Mirror investigates that aspect? Why not cover the response of the school to the freshman's experience with bullying or is that not relevant at all to the perpetuation of "rumor and innuendo and falsehoods" that has accompanied the initial incident? Also, according to an email sent by Ms. Campbell to parents, she was on campus October 20th. According to the radio story about the incident, she was supposed to meet with the parents of the freshman who was bullied but didn't. Why don't you address that?

However, most importantly kudos to the officer involved and his commitment to the students.
