Comments on: College’s lawsuit: you stole our poetry program https://www.overlawyered.com/2008/11/colleges-lawsuit-you-stole-our-poetry-program/ Chronicling the high cost of our legal system Wed, 26 Nov 2008 22:00:12 +0000 hourly 1 By: Logan Lamech https://www.overlawyered.com/2008/11/colleges-lawsuit-you-stole-our-poetry-program/comment-page-1/#comment-35546 Wed, 26 Nov 2008 22:00:12 +0000 http://overlawyered.com/?p=7917#comment-35546 I’m pretty sure a college doesn’t own professors or students so I don’t see how a poetry program can really be stolen. More wasting of the courts time. Plus a lawsuit doesn’t really scream free expression like most poetry fans are use to.

And it probably has paid its lawyer more money to sue her than it paid her for an entire year. Perhaps if New England College were more generous with her, she would have never left.
