There are no winners in the recent Penn State debacle; only losers. The school loses, Joe Pa loses, the NCAA loses, and the saddest, least talked about side, the kids who lost their innocence.
No matter how much the media dissects and debates the outcome, only one thing is certain; there were multiple, colossal failures by coaches, staff, and the authority figures involved. As an educator, you are held to a higher standard. Whether you educate on the field or in the classroom, parents have entrusted the safety and well-being of their children to you. Any lapse in judgement that jeopardizes that is inexcusable.
This isn't a football story. It's humanity story. And no matter how it's read, it ends in tragedy.
