"Hamm to face Ethics Board"
Most schools would fire a teacher who seduced his student, plied the underage girl with drugs and alcohol, and sexually assautled her.
And then there's Harvard.
The Internet Age has given rise to digital logarrhea. Blogs, twitters and flikrs all fuel this confessional spirit.
At Harvard, few have been hit by the urge to expose themselves than 20-year-old junior Lena Chen (http://www.thechicktionary.com).
Over the past few months, Chen has blogged and twittered about a new man in her life: "Patrick."
(http://thechicktionary.com/post/36713532/patrick-sitting-outside-the-newly-opened-crema)
When she started posting pictures of her beau, "Patrick's" identity immediately became obvious: Patrick Hamm, who holds a Teaching Fellowship with Harvard's department of sociology. (http://www.wjh.harvard.edu/soc/gs/Hamm_Patrick/)
That's when Chen's bloggings and twitterings added up to scandal.
Patrick Hamm teaches for the sociology department, where Chen is a student. Obviously, this violates Harvard's policy on "Unprofessional Conduct Between Individuals of Different University Status" (http://www.fas.harvard.edu/home/administration/sexual_harass_guide.html)
Chen's blogs (http://thechicktionary.com) provide still more episodes which cross the line into unethical -even illegal-behavior. According to Chen, Patrick Hamm
*"help[ed] me hunt down [a] fake ID...since I lost mine in Greece" (April 2),
*violated substance-related laws: "he is not even fazed by my underage-ness and the fact that I have to deal with pesky things like drinking laws" (April 2),
"This conversation only makes sense in context. When high
'[Hamm]: Get your fingers out of your vagina! We're eating dinner.'
[Chen]: It's not my fault I'm Chinese."
(http://thechicktionary.com/post/30591193/this-conversation-only-makes-sense-in-context-when)
(This may (or may not) be related to a "Patrick Hamm" who was arrested in a 2007 New Bedford, Mass., drug bust.)
The picture morphs from ethically bleary to morally eerie when one reads from Chen's March 21st blog, which documents cases of borderline sexual assault
