I started a petition to demand the US Department of Education withdraw federal funding to Penn State. The report that came out today indicates the university president knew about the abuse and did nothing for years. The Clery Act exists to withdraw federal funding from an institution that covers up crimes. I want to set the precedent that temporarily protecting your reputation while continuing to put children at risk will always have serious consequences.
I know this will also have consequences for innocent university employees and students, but I think in this case the precedent is more important than the fallout. If you agree with me, please sign my petition and share it with others (facebook, email, twitter, anything).
Here's the petition:
