DURHAM — The student-run Sexual Violence Action Committee is missing one important player: the school president.

UNH President James W. Dean Jr. wants students in the group, formed in response to sex assault allegations on campus, to apologize for the way they treated him and other administrators at a protest last month. And he won't meet with them until they apologize, according to two school officials.

President Dean attended a protest outside his on-campus home Oct. 25, held amid mounting frustration among students who felt UNH wasn't doing enough in response to alleged sexual violence.

UNH spokesperson Erika Mantz said students responded to the presence of the president and administrators with "disrespectful behavior."

1. The adults need to get over it and suck it up.

If they are interested in dialogue, they'll get over it.

2. The president makes a generous six-figure salary

4. Seriously. Total snowflake move.

Show up. Don't make conditions.

3. Can't say for sure, but the Dean sounds like a guy who never knew anything about...

that real life that doesn't exist outside of those hallowed halls.

It's not 1899 any more, and stories about multiple attacks have to be dealt with.
