2 interesting columns about Penn State child sex abuse tragedy

Here are a couple of columns that I missed. In case you did, too, they're noteworthy. Wendy Murphy, one of our network members, wrote The Need for Accurate Language in Penn State Coverage in November 2011.

Sexual Politics at Penn State -- An Inside Look is by Kathleen Barry, a former professor at Penn State, who, in January, described the surprisingly toxic culture on campus that helped create the tragedy. She segues into a compelling review of Nickels: A Tale of Dissociation, by Christine Stark.
