A leader knows what he did wrong. He does not need to bring in folks from all over the country to discuss why he and duke did the wrong thing to these students. The event happened at Duke and no where else. He leads duke and failed at that job. <BR/><BR/>I wonder out loud if brodhead was ever faced with a similar problem involving his son and a rouge DA, would he believe the DA over the fact his son told him that he was innocent? When one is responsible for kids, treat them like your own. People like PC distinguished brodhead would rather convict for convenience than protect the process. yep "until proven innocnet"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-11504164891894854462007-09-30T08:25:00.000-04:002007-09-30T08:25:00.000-04:00Has every one forgot that one of Brodhead's first ...Has every one forgot that one of Brodhead's first actions was to form the <A HREF="http://durhamwonderland.blogspot.com/2007/07/bowenchambers-report-in-retrospect.html" REL="nofollow">Bowen/Chambers</A> commission? The make up of the commission ensured that a document portraying the players in a negative light would be produced. I wonder if he will stack the upcoming conference in a similar fashion.wayne fonteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12082812958420391750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-20858674789727418382007-09-30T03:33:00.000-04:002007-09-30T03:33:00.000-04:00Just as Nifong never really seemed to understand w...Just as Nifong never really seemed to understand what he did wrong, Brodhead shows the same failing. Sad that those two men are so much alike. Sad that the two of them happened together at a point in time where they could do the maximum damage to the greatest number of people and institutions. It's all terribly sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-54465040283559176272007-09-29T23:01:00.000-04:002007-09-29T23:01:00.000-04:00Thanks JohnFirst, this man did not give an apology...Thanks John<BR/><BR/>First, this man did not give an apology for what he did, but for what "duke, we, our, us..." did in the mess.<BR/><BR/>I hope you pick it apart a paragraph at a time.

To those questions I would add the following: <BR/>1) Why did Duke advise the LaCrosse players not to tell their parents about events of that infamous evening and why did it advise them not retain counsel.<BR/>2) Why did Duke tell the players to talk to Wes Covington who had a clear conflict of interest.<BR/>3) Why did Duke violate the FERPA rights of the players by giving Nifong protected information?<BR/>4) Why did Duke tell the players there was a college/student privacy right when no such right exists?<BR/>5) Why does Duke continue to employ Kim Curtis after she gave a failing grade to a LaCrosse player in her class despite the student's prior passing grades?<BR/>6) Why has Brodhead and Duke shielded the Group of 88 from lawsuits by the three accused players?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
