Thats why David's highly parsed note appears odd to me. "I have never
before or since made a pass." OK. Few if any professors who have sex
with students, staff or even CPs do make passes. Maybe David just has
an innocent way about him, and is oblivious to the ways of student or
staff / factulty affairs. Hard to believe, but perhaps.
The sentence, "And contrary to the rumor, I have never before or since made a pass at any course participant, or staff." is easily the most interesting part, IMO, since it pretty much leaves open the question of whether or not he was making passes at anyone *not* a course participant, or staff...like students, or anyone else.
Of course, it raises the question -- is this any of our business?
Or course not, but since when did that stop any conversations here? For me, at least, it's not what any of these current or former TMO bigwigs do or didn't do, it's the hypocrisy--telling everyone else to do one set of things, and then surreptitiously doing the opposite. Is that possibly why they were asked to leave? If so, how do the others keep getting away with it? And what about Rhoda's response? I think I see the makings of a soap opera here.
For
the most part, probably not. But student faculty affairs at a
university "promoting" celibacy among its students, seems a bit
inappropriate. And David's highly parsed response just raises more
questions than it answers.
