The tl;dr seems to be an underage black person tried to buy wine, apparently stole wine, then there was a fight with the owner's son. There was a demonstration that was probably based on an unclear understanding of the events. So people over-reacted to events, yes they were stupid to do. But you shouldn't use this as an excuse to clutch one's pearls and conclude colleges have lost their way. This looks like a cya activity after the true(-er?) facts came out.

Did you miss the part about college officials committing purgery?

In what institution would she be able to keep her job?

So yes - some protest and confusion in the days after are understandable. But the actions of the college go way beyond that.

She should have been fired long ago the college should have apologized to the community alumni and the bakery and then it would all have ended.

This is a good example of colleges getting completely out of hand.

yeah, if she lied she should be fired. I am surprised there is not clear evidence, like a recording.
