Report names 12 at Choate Rosemary Hall who allegedly abused students

@nomoretears , I’m sorry this happened to you. I was at CRH for less than a year and a half, yet more than half of the faculty members mentioned in the report were on campus when I was there. The alarming thing to me is that when I heard about the scandal, I was reminded of multiple rumors I heard during my senior year, some of which seemed credible. Yet, none of the names I thought I might see in the report were there - the teachers named were others that I hadn’t even thought of in this light. I doubt the full extent of the problem will ever be uncovered. What’s striking to me is how casually we students discussed the possibility at the time. We regarded the rumored conduct as inappropriate, but consensual. I don’t think it ever crossed our minds to report what we’d heard; the prevailing culture was to brush it off as unsavory but par for the course and likely known to administration anyway. In retrospect, I have no doubt that such abuse could just as easily have happened to me if I’d been less fortunate in which faculty mentors I became close to. As it happened, the teachers who took me under their wing did so not only with great kindness, but also with the utmost adherence to professional boundaries. I’m sorry you weren’t so lucky.
