Bloom is a pimp. Apparently he tells boys in his class to move over so that he can see the females better.

Sexual harrassment is blown out of proportion sometimes. We'll have to see if this is just another one of those cases.

Looks like another feminist publicity thing. A bit early to be jumping to conclusions though.

I'm tempted to say to take this with a grain of salt, since it's coming from a feminist critic, but she also told Gore to enhance his "Alpha male" image. lol!

why does everyone have such negative transferrance to her? regardless of whether or not bloom's actions were blown out of proportion, it's very disheartening to learn how yale is dealing with the whole issue. in all honesty, reading wolf's article changed my opinion of yale. in my mind, however, i've tried to separate the handful of administrators who are condoning bloom's actions from the rest of yale's community and to not let this controversy diminish yale's numerous positive aspects. i just hope we yale die-hards don't shrug off this issue without giving it some serious thought - especially those of us who would like to join yale's class of 2008.
