They really don't seem to understand how the judicial system works. They lost, and unless they get a total reversal on appeal they will end up paying a significant amount of money to the Gibsons. So here is what they are saying now:

In upcoming phases, Oberlin will be more proactive about explaining the case and illuminating underlying issues that have high stakes not just for the College, but for free speech on campuses across the nation. Oberlin has a duty to help the public understand the value liberal arts colleges offer not only to their students, but society more broadly, and the threats posed by a case like this.

Seems a little late for that now, and it seems like they think they are somehow special and above the law. I am having a hard time seeing what value they offer, and with their attitude why anyone wouldn't want them to have to pay whatever damages are allowed by law.
