he served time in prison (where he spent almost NO TIME) . " There is so much wrong/sick/twisted with that statement, I don't even know where to start. "Ordinary" sex offenders don't bother him at all? The mind reels.

May he, and his enablers and supporters, receive everything they deserve. It looks like the entire staff, etc. needs to be investigated. With their demonstrated attitudes about sexual abuse, no woman is safe on that campus.

I just looked at Bard's wiki entry.. . a 1.5 billion endowment? Not exactly broke. What chilled me was the report of epstein's repeated visits to the campus, and his specific interest in Bard's early college program. Alarm bells!
