[quote=Anonymous]My takeaway is this: Foundationally, the GrubStreet leadership does not think that Sonya Larson and the rest of the Chunky Monkeys did anything wrong, even now, after everything. They know they have to get rid of some people because the outcry would be too large otherwise and GrubStreet depends on donations. However, GrubStreet clearly messaged by the lavish and over-the-top praise for Larson and Murphy in that letter that GrubStreet itself does not find any fault with them or their actions. Normally, people who are being escorted out for wrongdoing do not get wildly praised by those institutions. GrubStreet is essentially communicating that Larson and Murphy are leaving against the will of the GrubStreet leadership.

We know from the evidence in the court case that it was a corrupt and cruel institution; it is clear that they've made the decision to double down (and to do so in a way that exonerates the men involved entirely). I do not know why any beginning writer would attend a class there ever again. How could you ever trust your instructors? What would happen if you were sexually harassed? How could you trust their HR processes? How could anyone feel safe there? [/quote]
