John Fund reports on the college president, Robert Jennings of Lincoln University, who recently resigned under pressure because he told female students that they should watch out for men on campus.

While his attempt at fatherly advice on sex may have been inartful, it hardly justified his critics’ charge that he was blaming women for sexual assault. Nonetheless he has seen his career ruined, thanks to the highly charged atmosphere surrounding the issue of sexual assault

I agree. Earlier, I called Jennings’ advice “avuncular” and I’m not even sure it’s inartful. But John is right: it dive-bombed his career.
