a script for an anti-Kelly "article," in the belief that enough of them would create a panic within the admin -- akin to the panic at the prospect of a demonstration by white students demanding the firing of a black coach "contributed" to the firing of Willingham on the day the protest was organized to happen -- has failed. The strategy didn't work. The same "article" with minor variations is now just a joke. It was a desperate, and despicable, strategy of character assassination to begin with. But in light of the recent election what we've learned about electronic/social media storms, and what the ND admin hopefully learned, is that it all evaporates if you just ignore it. You only make it effective retrospectively by reacting to it. (Hey, a Catholic institution should know all about immanent causation.) Kudos to the admin for growing up.
