because monsters lurk amongst nonemonsters, which is difficult to tell between the two sometimes, because of this you would think extra long and hard on hiring someone who graduated from penn state because they attended a school w/ a child molester as a assisstant football coach and this penn state graduate may not make the correct decisions as far as you are concerned?
if you're aware that the college adminisitration would knowingly allow a monster to operate his monsterous acts for 15 years on campus, why would you think a school like that might be a good fit for you or anyone for that matter?
METAPHOR: think of it this way, if someone like bernie madoff (before jailed) was under investiagtion for fraud, what kind of person would continue to invest with him?Post edited by davidtrios on0 -

At least the people going to the school are receiving an education. But to fiscally support Penn State without receiving anything in return .... those are the real monsters.
:crazy:
And then we have to consider the financial support from the other eleven schools in the Big Ten and if grads from those schools should be trusted....Be Excellent To Each OtherParty On, Dudes!0 -

I need an explanation of how getting an education from a great school where a few people, almost entirely in the athletic department covered this up correlates with investing your money with someone who you know is going to steal it.0 -
The people at Penn State who knew about this have all either been fired, resigned, placed on leave, or arrested and placed on leave. The school is doing what it can to get rid of everyone involved in this mess, so why would a student looking to study history, for example, avoid the school simply because people who used to work there did something terrible?Davidtrios wrote:chadwick wrote:Davidtrios wrote:if i was hiring 5 years from now and i saw Penn St on a candidate's resume, I would seriosuly think twice about that person's decision making abilities.

I can't believe this dude is wearing Penn State gear. I really want to know what he was doing and what was going through his head as he watched the game Saturday and saw 110,000 people in tears singing the words "may no act of ours bring shame" and praying for his victims.0 -
cliffy, do you need a definition of the difference between correlation and metaphor?0

Correlation probably wasn't the right word, but explain how those two decision making processes can be compared at all.
I can't be bothered with this shit anymore, when you come back to earth and feel like discussing the situation like a reasonable person, let me know.0 -

Hey - Pearl Jam played State College (rather famously) in 2003. While Sandusky was molesting kids.

Again, a burning building and a child sex scandal? By letting my son in a burning building I would be putting him in danger, by allowing him to go to a great school, I am in now way endangering him, in fact, I am doing the opposite.
I can't figure out if you are being literal with the burning building0
