I didn't care about the whole story until I went to my podiatrist on Tuesday and I reminded him that I attend Hofstra.

The first thing that came out of his mouth in response was in regard to the rape. I'm surprised I didn't just get up and leave the office at that point.

1. I asked for my thread on it to be locked, since it's going nowhere fast...
I imagine they'll get to it when they get to it.

5. Nah, that threads a keeper.
Destined for DU canon like the "douchebag" thread and the "lunar probe" thread.

7. (shrug) Looks like mods are no longer closing a thread at OP's request anyway...
So have at it.

2. You didn't care till somebody mentioned it and now you don't want to hear about it.
And that constitutes a reasoned explanation for anyone's behavior?

3. You should start a blog about how you're sick of hearing about it.

6. Well, one of my friends went to Columbine High School. Ten years later and she still gets
the looks of concern and then questions whenever it comes up.

8. I imagine a lot of Duke alumni would agree
all the more reason to oppose false rape accusations (and smearing the real victims in the media before all the facts are out).
