New Wharton Dean Thomas S. Robertson is apparently pretty tight with erstwhile W professor Scott Ward, recently sentenced to fifteen years in prison for some sexual misconduct with young boys, according to the kids at IvyGate, who apparently track that kind of thing. Not only have Robertson and Ward co-published and co-edited books (in which children are prominently figured) together, but the duo co-owned a house on Cape Cod for twenty-five years, beginning in 1977. Scandalous! (Or maybe not “scandalous” but “potentially shady.”)
Penn spokeswoman Lori Doyle commented that the University has determined (scientifically, one assumes) that the friendship will have “no bearing on Dr. Robertson’s ability to lead the Wharton School.” IG, however, is skeptical, and we’re inclined to agree—everyone knows that pedophilia is a communicable disease, and it’s a slippery slope (/less than 20 minute walk) from here to Drexel University’s LeBow School of Business. (And this is not a snap judgement in any way, but does that smile say “I love children” or does that smile say “I love children”?)

What kind of a horrible world is this? Jeffrey Epstein, an outstanding citizen who is only guilty of enjoying the company of just-underage WOMEN, goes to prison – while Thomas Robertson, the former roommate of a man who molests BOYS, is named dean of an Ivy b-school? I’m going home to drown the pain in Balvenie.
Also, while I’m not a big fan of guilt via association, Robertson’s right out of central casting for the role of pedo. A good caption for the picture would be, “Hi little boy! Would you like to meet my pet weasel?”
Apparently Bess, you can do nearly anything these days and be rewared for it….it matters not. Don’t do nothingt but, run from someone who has been assigned to a composition of 15 years.
If you think Huntsman Hall is sweet, wait til you see the wing I will have built during my “stay” in Florida.
Solidarity Thomas S. Robertson, hold on brother.
any man that dyes his hair is a homo
They came in Red, Orange, Green, Blue, Yellow and Minis. I swear, only Green melted in my hands, none of the minis were in my mouth.
Why are so many Ivy league guys fags? Do they show up on day one that way?
Heavens no…..who is going to teach pedophilia?
There go your chances of getting into Wharton, Bess.
