200.000$ to the student for sexual harassment

I've got a very interesting and instructive story to retell you. As we have already understood there are many ways of getting free education. Today's point is to get free education as a kind of compensation!
A friend of mine who is a lawyer by profession told me the story of a girl who had problems with paying for her second year at college. Her family was poor and so usual tactics like credit for getting education, loan consolidation, not worked for her...
Jack Samuel Wilson used to be the dean of the faculty of mathematics at College in Denver where Julian Hoston studied.. Jack was a well-educated man with high moral standards. He lectured physics at college. This girl, a very pretentious young lady, brought an action against him because he seemed to offend her feelings terribly. In fact he opened the door in front of her and let her came into the study first. In his opinion a real gentleman always acts like this.
She understood this deed as if he wanted to say she couldn't have guessed to enter the room herself or even like an act of sexual harassment.
Her family's Denver Personal Lawyer supported her greatly and they took it into court. The whole procedure took four month, but the girl was rather resolute and didn't recede. The attorney insisted on paying 250.000$ for sexual harassment, but the judge made the conclusion the the man would have to pay the compensation of 200.000$.
Have you guessed what the girl did next? Right! She paid for her second year in college. This situation was a stroke of luck for her!
