"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
ita,
my only point in bringing that up is that your example probably isn't the right one for the Penn State situation. From my understanding, that line of research refers to why people in crowds (like bystanders when someone falls ill at a mall or something) often watch and wait for another to take action - although even this research doesn't show that it happens all the time. The converse isn't necessarily true.
In the PSU situation, a different set of social pressures are at work. Over-identification with institution would be where I'd begin.

ANyone here have any experience with removing gel nail polish? The manicurist who put it on said to take it off like normal but its not coming off. And I looked online but they mention soaking your fingers in acetone for a long time. Which I really don't want to do.

Stephanie - I have tried to remove it at home and was not successful, even with acetone.

I do fake nails myself, and the only surefire removal is acetone. 'Normal' to a manicurist is probably straight up acetone, not any alternative remover. And it isn't that long with acetone. For my fakes (which are probably thicker than a gel) the total time from sticking my fingers in acetone to putting a final coat on the new fakes is an hour. So maybe 10 minutes a hand to remove, so less than that for you? Helps if you scrub/scrape in situ.

That is annoying to hear. Although I've been meaning to visit a friend who works at a salon so maybe I'll kill two birds.

I've been successful only by soaking gel polish in acetone based remover for a pretty long time and periodically scraping it off. It's not pretty!
