College officials say the controversy over Ritter has disrupted normal college operations. THEY ALSO CITE the need for extraordinary security. Earlier this month it was learned the outspoken opponent of a United States attack on Iraq was arrested two years ago. Police charged he was attempting to meet a 16-year-old girl for a sexual encounter. The charges were dismissed without a plea. The assistant district attorney involved was fired from her job two weeks ago. The college does not get back the $4,000 it paid Ritter's agency to book him. NewsChannel 13 contacted Ritter by phone Thursday, but he would not reveal if would still receive his cut after his agent's fee.
