Bullying and harassment at USCG Academy?

The Connecticut Mirror brings us a report on apparently ongoing problems at the U. S. Coast Guard Academy.

Two congressional committees issued a scathing report Wednesday on bullying and harassment at the Coast Guard Academy that determined officers at the New London facility conducted deficient and incomplete investigations and retaliated against those who made complaints.
The report was released at a joint hearing of the House Homeland Security Committee and the House Government Oversight and Reform Committee that focused on the Coast Guard’s failure to conduct prompt, thorough and impartial investigations into allegations of harassment. The academy was also criticized for failing to take corrective actions, including holding those responsible for bullying or retaliation accountable.
