Lisa Simpson and Anne Gilmore will each receive large sums of money for their claims against the the University of Colorado for there lack of supervision over the football recruits. Simpson will receive 2.5 million dollars from her claim while Gilmore will receive 350 thousand. Simpson does seem happy about the steps that Colorado is taking to ensure this does not happen to anybody else.
If a school brings anybody in for any reason they should be responsible for their actions. Its just like when we bring somebody into our dorms. We are vouching for them when they are signed in and in case they end up stealing something its partly our fault. It may not seem fair but it is the right way to take care of this kind of matter. The University of Colorado did not watch its recruits and therefor they deserve to get in trouble for it. However, the recruits who performed the illegal actions also need to be punished in some way because it is mostly their faults.
