I didn't realize he was an alum, but that still doesn't mean he behaves like an adult. Whether you think he should or not. I know plenty of people my age still in school/just out that haven't yet made the transition from "college kid" to "adult". Not that I'm oh-so-mature at all times, but you get the picture.

I don't think there is a consensus because the article takes Wizard-kid and friend's word and Adam Smith gives his own account, and like Kevin said, both of these parties have a motivation to twist things. The one thing the two accounts do agree on is that the physical assault happened, and it shouldn't have. It's he said/he said and we're just left to draw our own conclusions.

Who thinks it's justified?
