The formula to put this to rest isn’t that complicated. It will linger as a scandal for years of media coverage and litigation (like Duke) unless the Board acts decisively, which it appears inclined to do as evidenced by its firings tonight of President Graham Spanier and coach Joe Paterno. Next steps...
Step 1: apologize and come clean. We knew and we ignored it and covered-up.
Step. 2: publicly admit Clery Act and Title IX violations.
Step 3: Settle with the victims and families before they even hire a lawyer.
Then, healing and growing as a community can start sooner than later.

But you have advised Penn State on many occasions. Why weren't you able to prevent this? You charge a lot of $$$ and Pennsylvania tax payers aren't getting any good out of it!
