I wonder if the University administrator is covered under a Directors and Officers liability policy. If so, the defense costs are included within their limits (unlike a General Liability policy where defense costs are in addition to the limit), and the policy is much more limited in what it covers (e.g. no explicit duty to defend the insured, excludes bodily injury and property damage, etc.).
ETA: I just re-read the article. Is there a university admin. who is being sued by the fraternity? It looks like there's one who's suing Rolling Stone...
