You’ve heard a lot about Harvey Weinstein, the Hollywood mogul who has fallen from grace for alleged sexual harassment and possible rape toward women.
Every day it seems a former supporter is condemning Weinstein, who as of this past weekend was even kicked out of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Oscars. They didn’t even kick out Bill Cosby and he has more than 60 women who have accused him of alleged sex crimes.
So Weinstein has everyone’s ire.
But have you heard of Psycholinguistics professor T. Florian Jaeger, 41, of the University of Rochester, who now has at least 14 alleged victims who say he forced them to meet, do drugs and have sex with him?
Sexual harassment on campus is bad enough when it’s simply a matter of students.

It’s the real reason higher ed officials should pay heed to the Weinstein case. And the Jaeger case at University of Rochester.
