    We shouldn't pity poor "Barry," of dear old Oberlin. He was ultimately cleared. Nothing to it.

    Posters are militant about this: The accuser is to be believed!

    It sounds great on a message board.

    I'm old enough for back pain and I wasn't yet in grade school when that particular hysteria happened. That you have to reach that far shows what a bogeyman it is.

    Not really. A lot of women don’t come forward because they think nothing will happen to their assailants.

    If increased vigilance encourages more victims to come forward, it’s worth getting one or two wrong in colleges’ kangaroo court system.

    Unnamed male college student in Oregon ... cleared of rape charges, still effectively banned from campus because he resembled the rapist. No biggie.

    Are we talking about prosecutorial misconduct or finding accusers credible in public opinion?
