To answer the OP question...I would take my diploma off the wall and throw away all my bama memorobilia including my UA license plate, I would risk a traffic ticket before I would be seen with it on my car again. I would never support the school or any of the athletic teams again. Doubt I'd ever watch sports again period.
I'm sick that for all those years I admired the Penn State program and Joe Pa that all of this was going on. How was this kept quiet for so long? What happened to bring it out? I know, I need to read, but at work right now...

It appears that it was "swept under the rug" as to not tarnish the PSU brand/name.

That I'm not sure of. If I had to take an educated guess, a victim came forward and talked to the actual police (not the campus police).

Have some antacids near you. It's nauseating.

Pretty much what everyone else said except I would add...not only the administration from Pres to Wr Coach..but all mention of their names redacted. No statues, no buildings named after, no scholarships in honor of (still keep the 'ships just in honor of something /someone else) In no way shape or form can there be anything associated with this depravity associated with the University. If this were a ponzi scheme....and paterno knew about it, he finishes the year, but this (and I'm not about to read the GJ report...don't need to, the two or three sentences that have leaked out are sufficient) is so beyond that....the only thing that should be left are the education programs put into place to try to insure that this never happens again.
ETA: when I think of "monsters within humanity" I think of the Drs. in Nazi Germany. I now think of Jerry Sandusky the same way. Saying "I was following orders" didn't suffice then, "I did the legal miminum" should not suffice now.
