[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stanford should be held liable for this. Utterly callous and negligent. Young adults when put in vulnerable positions aren’t in a position to think rationally. Their brains are not fully developed yet.

What’s more shocking is Stanford’s reaction to this. A family lost their daughter forever!

I am amazed at their callous treatment of her - she was a goalie for their women’s soccer team. Where were the coaches? There were no faculty/coaches looped in or supporting her?

Exactly. No one was there for her. I get she was an adult but still she was vulnerable and let Stanford know that in many formats. I am not condoning her actions (assuming it was not an accident). But there was context and also she earned the right to make a mistake. After all she did for the school, she deserved someone there supporting her. I don’t think $10m is enough. [/quote]

I’m just curious if posters like you would say the same if the roles were reversed. A man throws coffee on a woman he perceives to have wrong a friend of his, and he injures her in some way. Would you expect the university to provide him with “support” while they investigated his actions?[/quote]
