I still fail to see how this is Oprah's fault. Is she supposed to be at the school 24/7, because that would be the ONLY way she would be to blame. Otherwise, you do what any school does and hire the best person you can find and do checks on them. If you have a monitor on that person, then you'd better have a monitor on the monitor and so on.

LOTS of schools runs into these problems. Hell, in the UK most boarding schools are like this and for all we know, that culture has permeated Africa. The most prestigious boys' school in Canada, Upper Canada College, recently went through a scandal like this. Unfortunately, you can't watch everyone all the time.
