I wonder if we could kill two birds with one stone by getting OCS to investigate MTL?

BTW, I am going to take this on a tangent, because the piece talks about the unintended consequences in the school of the Brock Turner incident.

Tons of unintended consequences all around, including in the effort to recall the judge sentenced him.

what happened was that sentences across the state of California increased by 30% in the six weeks following the announcement of the recall

There's more at the link, some of which might violate the no politics guidelines, so I truncated the quote.

Brock Turner is one of the great apples-and-oranges cases of the last few years. Turner's pled-and-proven conduct is a prosaic violation of general criminal law, Penal C. Section 261 (a)(3), if you want chapter-and-verse. It no more belongs in a student disciplinary setting than robbery or homicide. A student who takes advantage of a coed who is slightly the worse for drink, somewhat disinhibited, may have done something ungentlemanly that is a proper subject for university discipline. A student who does the same thing to someone unconscious has committed a major felony.

I mention this because I've read a couple of accounts over the years (one from a Harvard undergrad) of female students who were violated when they were dead to the world. Someone victimized like that should not call the dorm resident. She should call the police.

As to the article, the one statistic that stuck with me was 10,000 administrators. Are you kidding? More administrators than students and faculty combined. Apparently what they mostly do is create work for themselves.
