<p>kudos
apparently no one else on this forum reads the news...</p>
<p>pinko upstarts</p>
<p>This was covered on National Cable last evening.........ewwww.</p>
<p>What the....</p>
<p>its a preference</p>
<p>wow. this is kind of creepy. i was thinking of applying to wharton too...</p>
<p>^this will seriously affect your decision?</p>
<p>Why not? I only go to college where my professors are blond haired, blue eyed, and of pure blood.</p>
<p>Don't worry. He's professor emeritus, meaning that he no longer is teaching, in case you're worried that you might run into trouble while going to class.......</p>
<p>Professors emeritus do teach, and Ward was indeed teaching. Look at the DP:</p>
<p>"We learned yesterday of the arrest of Scott Ward and the charges that were filed against him in Virginia. We have made arrangements to ensure that he will not be teaching at the Wharton School or elsewhere at the University this semester and he will not teach at Penn in the future."</p>
<p>I am little rusty on my first century latin, but shouldn't it be "emeriti"</p>
<p>just a thought</p>
<p>gxing: If this situation at Wharton is going to affect your decision to apply so be it but I'm guessing you have very limited knowledge of the population in general with regard to this proclivity in adults. Gotta say that your comment says more about you than about Wharton or any other academic program.</p>
<p>It's not like a professor liking children would be a problem for a college student who is no longer a child.</p>
<p>"I am little rusty on my first century latin, but shouldn't it be "emeriti""</p>
<p>Actually, I'm not very sure about that (I thought about it before posting, and couldn't decide)... The latin plural of 'emeritus' is indeed 'emeriti', but that doen't necessarily imply 'emeriti' is correct in this context. For instance, consider 'poet laureate', where 'poet' seems to be the head noun and 'laureate' is an adjective. Its plural is 'poets laureate', so similarly you could argue that it should be 'professors emeritus'. But I'm really not sure... I don't really know latin, and English isn't even my native language!</p>
<p>Heh this is just like that Duke scandal.</p>
<p>What Penn students have had DNA collected or been indicted? Is there more to this story than published?</p>
<p>Rudess, alright then. We'll just default to Meng is right because he is a native English speaker. Thank you.</p>
<p>hazmat, relax. I was kidding. Still, I WAS a bit shocked.</p>
<p>I personally don't care who or even what my professors like having sex with as long as they give me a better education than the windbags at harvard.</p>
<p>This thread is so many levels of awful.</p>
