    AMAZINGLY well done, Michelle and Jack! Meticulously researched, and I really liked the faculty perspective too--gives an unusual dimension to what is normally a one-sided critique. Good job!

    how come there are no stats on the number of cases that get dismissed or in which the student is acquitted (versus those number that reveal the number of students disciplined)? this would provide better context/or further help answer the question of whether the committee is truly stacked/biased against a student. there is some info on the website, but you have to extrapolate a lot and make many assumptions to have any idea about this question.
