Neither Ann Porter nor Roger B. Porter—Dunster’s other House Master—responded to repeated requests for comment yesterday through interim House Administrator Brandon Edwards.

He's a really nice man, and really fun to be around. A down-to-earth, jubilant guy, man, seriously. I just try to relate to him that you're a football player, and football players go out there and perform. In due time, if you continue to perform...
