[QUOTE="hometown frog, post: 1067943, member: 31"] They could have 'gotten out in front of the story' without giving off the perception that there were 'major drug rings' involved. I admire them for sending out the campus wide email and holding an open press conference as early as they did. That showed they were involved and supported the arrests. That is perfect and what you need. The issue i have arises from the fact that you had a Police Chief and a Chancellor making statements directly or indirectly that allowed the media members to use direct or indirect quotes from TCU officials that made this out to be MUCH bigger than it should have been. Had they simply stated that they were involved with a 6 month operation with FWPD that was initiated by TCU and resulted in arrests and removal of individuals from the campus, that would have scoped this at a much lower panic level that McGee's comments did.

Verification
