>>Guilty is a loaded word. And I probably misused it. What I meant was that throwing a keg party and hiring a couple of black strippers for the guys' amusement was not an act of innocence. I meant it in the moral sense, not the legal sense.

We have that in common. I graduated from UW-Madison, which was and remains a notorious party school. But I never went to one where strippers were hired. Black or white. (Why hire strippers when the amateurs are so enthusiastic?)

Would it have been less of a story if the women had been white instead of black? Probably so. That's the world we live in. A black woman from the wrong side of the tracks says she was raped by white Duke athletes, that's news. No getting around it.
