Cosby settles sexual assault suit. Will Temple have him back?

Bill Cosby settled on the sexual assault case today, but the terms of the settlement have not been disclosed. The woman, a former employee of the Temple University Athletic Department accused Cosby of having drug and sexually assaulted her in his Cheltenham mansion.

Cosby has had a tough run since 1997.
First, there was the murder of his son, Ennis, in Los Angeles.
Then, he was busted on a brief affair. Autumn Jackson, the daughter of the woman he had the affair with, extorting him.
Then, in 2004, this case.

As the most notable alumnist of Temple University, Cosby was a regular feature at freshman orientations and at the annual commencement ceremonies. He hsa not been aske to attent either even since 2003.

This year, he spoke at an event hosted by Temple's School of Education, in which he promoted a PBS documentary Boys of Baracka. Relations seemed light at that event as Cosby engaged in a comical banter with Temple's new president Ann Weaver Hart. But, will the Cos be back at commencement?

We shall see.
