What I find unsettling about your stand is that you are prepared to 
condemn people for what they think and feel (and you determine that 
how?), not for what they do. Even the handbook you cite makes it clear 
that what is actionable is "sexual assault and sexual misconduct" 
(i.e., somebody actually *did* something), not physical attraction, 
which as far as I know is not a criminal offense in the more 
enlightened regions of the U.S. and U.K. Though that "more likely than 
not" bit makes me think that the university in question must be 
somewhere in the southeastern United States.

I'm with Ann Landers on this one: As long as the parties involved are 
of age and comfortable with the situation, MYO goddamned B.
