You know, the article made no mention that these people were college students.  I don't feel too terribly sorry for the maroon - particularly given the amount of the award, given that Paxton was stupid (and lust-filled) enough to put himself in that situation, and given that he was even stooopider enough to claim that the beer-keg was "broken" - but it is a little hairy if we stop to think about the implications of losing a job over legal, even if ethically questionable behavior, outside the workplace.
