David Letterman has crossed the threshold from tabloid guest star to full time villain. Well, if Quinnipiac University's to be believed.

The Connecticut college will take a good, hard look at its internship programs to make sure none of their coeds end up backstage at Letterman's CBS digs:

Due to recent circumstances we will have a discussion with those in charge of placing our interns at the David Letterman show in the future.

We will diligently oversee this internship program to ensure that our interns are out of harm's way.

Isn't this going a bit, oh, we don't know — far? Should Letterman really cross over to full-blown villainy? Though, yes, his work place affairs were ethically dubious, but Letterman's a late night talk show host who fucked around, got caught and has now become his nightmare: a punchline. It's not like he's Jack the Ripper or the intern's greatest nightmare: a Congressman.
