The College Fix
Oberlin College refuses to take responsibility for its own administrators’ defaming and retaliating against a bakery whose race-neutral anti-shoplifting policy enraged Oberlin students.
Following a judgment of $25 million in damages and $6.5 million in attorney’s fees and expenses, the judge has agreed to stay the execution of his judgment – but it will cost Oberlin.
Judge John Miraldi ordered the Ohio liberal arts college to post a bond of more than $36 million to cover the judgment plus interest while Oberlin appeals. Without explaining his reasoning, he approved the exact amount the Gibson’s Bakery plaintiffs had asked Oberlin to pay in lieu of letting them collect on the judgment immediately. More
Heh.
“Oberlin also highlighted its plunging enrollment at trial.”
Hmm, funny, that, I wonder why.
Also: “In case you’ve forgotten, Oberlin tried to intimidate Legal Insurrection during its lawsuit coverage by going to court in New York to seek its communications with the Gibson’s lawyers.”
B/S! Good grief. For petes’ sake. This is assinine. Make them sell everything they own to pay the bill. Make them fire the perpetrators and take their retirement. Make them sell their land. Any judge that goes along with this remove him from the bench. Actions need consequences.
The only poverty the college has is it’s integrity. Pay up, you’re political correctness has a price tag and you made the purchase.
They would have had no empathy for the bakery or its workers.
Good for the judge.
Why should anyone empathize with Oberlin.
Liberal Arts Degree? lol Hope you like poverty!
If you’ve ever visited that campus, you would know their claims of destitution are absolute bullshit. Here’s a suggestion: Sell some of this stuff and you’d have MORE than enough to pay the judgment: http://www2.oberlin.edu/amam/collection.html
This is huge – if Oberlin shuts down after paying the judgement where will SJW wannabes get a degree in Afro-Climate-Interpretive Dance Studies?
Shut ’em down, send in the repo guys….
Man. If Oberlin is put out of business over this then that’s one down, 2363 to go. The Republic may yet be saved!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnd STILL… nobody’s gettin fired!!
It’s just the cost of doing the bidness of pushing that Leftist agenda!
They’re just hoping to tap a loaded, dumbed-down, sugar-daddy (or two, or three) by crying about it! As Brown Eyed Girl mentions it is beautiful campus flush with cash and only God knows how much other real estate they own in the area!
