David Cutcliffe has earned my trust, as much as anybody I've met only in passing. From what I know of Cut, I really like how he handles things w/ great integrity. I also hope it wasn't a case of situational ethics. And I want to hear from Cut. All of those statements can be true and can live side-by-side. Cut, like all humans, can make mistakes and can make judgments that I or others may disagree with. Not saying that happened here.
After I posted, I noticed Cut gave a quote. Here it is:
“During this process, Parker has displayed humility and wisdom while, through his actions, regaining our trust,” Cutcliffe said. “This certainly hasn’t been easy, but that’s the way life lessons can be taught. He went through the procedure for re-application to the school and, most importantly, continues his education here at Duke immediately with the first summer school session.”
