Quote:
"Two tenured professors have resigned from Truman State University following a student’s complaint of sexual assault.
According to university officials, the student, a senior, told them and the police last August that she had been assaulted in the home of David C. Williams, a professor of language and literature. However, the student, Tasha Amick, told police she could not recall who had assaulted her, the university said. Ms. Amick said Dr. Williams was there, as was John Langley, an associate professor of communications, and another professor whose name has not been revealed. She said the professors may have given her drugs to make her forget the evening"
