Eh, I think you have to separate the students and faculty from the admins. I don't think many MIT students have ever been proud to be associated with the admins, because they do boneheaded things pretty regularly.

The way the administration threw Star Simpson under the bus within hours of her arrest was despicable.

Did they? I graduated the year before that whole debacle, so I didn't get a very good sense of what happened beyond what was going on on one of the dorm mailing lists. I wouldn't be very surprised, though.
