As long as we're gossiping, there's the husband of Marie J. (French teacher, very sweet lady), who did a stint as photography teacher and Hyde pedophile. He had an affair with a student named Beth who disappeared shortly thereafter. Nothing was ever made public.
Never heard anything about Sumner and students--but the young married male faculty were fair game. Funny how that never came out (so to speak) in seminars.
In the early 80's, when I was there, faculty were having quite a love-in--so many couples, I think they pressed headmaster Legg into service as a justice of the peace, to marry them in the sunken garden.

Well, Wes, I gotta tell you, and I sure hope I don't offend you with this, but I checked out that link, and followed it to the original site and read there a bit...
And I am guessing that that is the right person, although whether it is or not probably doesn't affect most of the rest of this post...
MSW? Life Coach? What is the friggin' world coming to? I don't know what it is about these New Agey places but they attract the fruit flies like a basket of rotting apples. Mind you, I have no issues with yoga, per se, but these days it seems like the discipline has become a bastion of, and safe haven for, parasitic weirdos who just prey on people's natural desire to better themselves.
In the later pictures she reminds me of an older woman I knew shortly after Hyde, who preyed on the naivete and age-typical hormones of younger "men," ostensibly as a recovery method in reaction to a bad and failed marriage with a misogynist prick. As I got to know her better, I rethought that latter descriptive.
I don't care what kind of bad experience or trauma or what have you that they went through before, it sure as hell doesn't give people any right to go trawling through the student body for a more malleable stiff, so to speak.
Anybody that went through Hyde or any similar type of experience knows that people's souls are crushed together in a heat of misery and strong feelings. It's bound to happen that people sometimes imagine a connection with one another that has far less basis in reality simply because of all the pressure. However, it really is the responsibility of the faculty member in such cases, both morally and legally, to keep a lid on things from progressing to inappropriate extremes. After all, they are supposedly the adult!
I can't even begin to imagine what "processing" you must have gone through in the aftermath. How do you understand all that? What box do you put that in? In my time I can remember looking up to the faculty like they were God. Well, not quite God, but you get the drift... I couldn't imagine questioning any of them. (I questioned the verity of plenty that I remember going on there after I got out, though...)

Didn't mean to drop the ball on this, Guest. I'm just having a hard time wrapping my brain around all these new cases. We need a bulletin board like in Law & Order to track all this sordid history...
Well, probably no coincidence that Peyton Place was written in Maine, ha ha ha!
Okay... gigolo husband of Marie J. (French teacher), seduces and has an affair with "Beth." Did this enter the official knowledge base of Hyde, is that why she had to leave? What happened to the photographer? And Marie? Did they continue to teach at Hyde afterwards? Did Beth's parents get involved at all? This wouldn't, perchance, be Beth D., would it?
