Kurt Eichenwald Quote

I stood, ready to walk out on this point. No matter what happens in the future, no matter what I become, I will never return here. I will, however, contribute ten dollars a year by deducting it from what Swarthmore owes me. Which means I’ll be long dead before the school gets a dime. I’m sorry you feel that way, Stott said. And I’m sorry this happened to you. I choked up. Stott, uninvolved in my dismissal, was the only person at Swarthmore to have ever apologized.
