We asked Witsies their thoughts on the sexual harassment allegations that have surfaced within the departments of the institution. Here’s what they had to say…
Your voice: How well do you think the university has handled the Sexual Harassment issue?
-
"The University doesn’t care about the students. They are just trying to protect themselves. They’ve known about it for many years. They should have done something about it sooner."
-
"I think they handled it well. I was impressed with the email we got from the Arts department telling us they are sorting it out. I know of other sexual harassment cases and the University handled those well."
-
"It has been kept under wraps a lot. They should have suspended him when he was first reported."
-
"Not well at all. The only reason they did something is because of the attention it got from the media. The university came before the students and only now that issue has gone beyond wits do they want to deal with it."
-
"Not well. It appears that the University has known for a while but they kept it under the carpet. Their choice to turn a blind eye has made things worse. It’s sad."
