According to the Chicago Tribune, in March 2016, five football players dragged a freshman teammate kicking and screaming from his dorm room, tied him with duct tape, and left him beaten and half-naked with two torn shoulders on a baseball field. A spokesperson for Wheaton College said, "When this incident was brought to our attention by other members of the football team and coaching staff in March 2016, the College took swift action to initiate a thorough investigation." What action? Made them serve community service and write an essay. "Community service and an essay, along with still being on the football team, doesn't sound like much punishment when compared to felony charges of aggravated battery" Wheaton college made the players do community service and write an essay!?!?!?!?!? WHAT!!?!?!? Now they are finally being charged. After having been free and still playing football for the past year. Here's the best part, Wheaton is a school that can kick you out for pre-marital sex as it is against scripture and therefore against the community covenant. But battery and kidnapping? Just community service and an essay. Charming.

Looks like Wheaton read the Nick Saban or FSU Book of Discipline

And this is not going to get any better now that Betsy DeVos has rolled back Title IX protections.
Expect to see more of this bullshit.

I heard that they didn't feel that the victim was being completely truthful because he had previously told his roommate that he had injured his shoulder in high school and that he didn't scream for help during it. Sounds terrible.
