I personally dont think this is a whitman thing. I enjoyed my time at Whitman and found the staff was relatively supportive compared to other schools.

However, I do think it's a generational thing.  Again and again, boomers and xers seem to need to have it explained to them why sexual predation is unacceptable.  They. Just. Don't. Get. It.

I have no idea why anyone could hear a teenage girl saying her high school coach had been sexually pursuant of her, but dismiss because she just turned 18.  That is still so, so disgusting and a violation of every ethical code.

But soooo many older people need this stuff explained to them.  Then the board gives the notes the girls wrote TO the coach in question.

There is seriously a problem with older people just dismissing male predatory sexual behavior.  And that goes across the board. [/quote]

Our high school coach pursued (with consent) a 18 yo graduate and I remember thinking it was weird but okay. - Gen Xer[/quote]

Another Gen x’er who saw a female HS coach pursue with consent a minor.  I remember thinking “Yuck.”  A shocking number of my college friends were date raped or assaulted.  No, I don’t need you to explain anything to me.  Get over your millennial self.[/quote]
