Baylor News in today's newspaper:
| Quote | Starr resigns post at Baylor amid scandal
WACO, Texas -- Ken Starr resigned as Baylor University's chancellor on Wednesday, a week after the former prosecutor who led the investigation of the Bill Clinton - Monica Lewinsky scandal was removed as the school's president over its handling of sexual assault complaints against football p,ayers.
Starr, who will continue to teach at the law school, told "Outside the Lines" in an interview broadcast Wednesday that he didn't know about the allegations of sexual assault involving members of Baylor's vaunted football program until media reports first surfaced in 2013 during a player's trial.
"I didn't know about what was happening, but I have to, and I willingly do accept responsibility. The captain goes down with the ship," said Starr, who was hired as president of the nation's largest Baptist university in 2010. |
Starr didn't know about anything until media reports surfaced during a player's trial? Maybe I'm naive, but I'd expect the president to hear about it at least by the morning after a football player got arrested.
Somebody please ask Kairosfocus if this is Absolute Morality at work?
