Brandeis Justice controversy winding down

Steve Silver has a good breakdown of the "recriminations, accusations, and resignations."
And he gets this off his chest: "When I was [Brandeis Justice] Arts Editor in 2000, 'The Tigger Movie' was released, and we ran a review of it in the Arts section, accompanied by a photo of the 'cheerful scamp.' Being in the habit at the time of amusing myself by running funny photo captions that referenced music and movies, and seeking to pay tribute to the seminal '80s rap group N.W.A., I gave the photo the caption 'Tiggers With Attitudes.'"
Jawsblog's Josh points us to the 23 letters printed in response to the controversial column, and the minutes of the student senate meeting that ran into the early hours of the morning. Commentary here.
So where does everything go from here? We'll have to wait and see.
MORE: Dahlia of Sporadic Thoughts blogs about it, too, agreeing with Josh and Steve that the defense shouldn't have been placed above the apology.
