@AKBruce   John Yoo was the "creep" in question.  He was and is a tenured professor in the law school; his torture memo wasn't grounds for firing him ... you know, academic freedom and all that.  The students generally were very unhappy to see him, or so my daughter - a student at UC Berkeley law (better known to those of us over 50 as Boalt Hall) at the time - said.
