[quote=Anonymous]I don't think so. Schools have scandals, but I don't think they touch kids who aren't involved. UVA post Rolling Stone (before it was discredited), UNC's athletic scandal, Duke LAX, VT after the massacre-- I don't think any of these thing reflect on 95% or more of the students who attend (that is, I wouldn't want to be a Duke LAX player in the time around the scandal, or a UNC basketball player-- but everyone else? Nope). All still great schools. That said, these scandals involving athletes (in addition to the above, Grayson Allen and Brock Turner come to mind) and athletic departments happen again and again. If the primary measure of a college is how well the educated their students, I think it's time to ask ourselves why athletes/ coaches/ athletic departments are getting away with things that schools would never tolerate from other departments and even the best and brightest non-athlete students.
