Key Findings: Exposure to a field-specific faculty sexual misconduct incident decreases degree completion in that field by 3.4 percent four years after the incident. This decline is driven by incidents occurring after 2015, among which we observe a 7 percent decline in in-field degree completion.

Tell me you didn’t even try finding the answer in the unpaywalled link to the entire paper RIGHT THERE before asking the author to answer your lazy question for you without telling me you didn’t even try to find the answer yourself before asking the author to answer your lazy question for you.

2. I do know this, though: backing away from the fight will backfire. The Democrats are now finally being rewarded for courage. Voters *like* courage. They *trust* fighters. Guess what happens when you stop before the fight is won?

Ellis now saying that the balance of interests favors the public in issuing an injunction ensuring the government conducts itself fairly and abides by the constitution.
