    Sounds like victim blaming to me. If a student stalks or sexually harassed her, you punish the student.

      you’re right, if it happens. The problem here is that it’s unnecessary drama that is inevitably going to eat up the school’s legal defense fund; and probably a lot of other funding. You can’t really blame the school for wanting to not deal with that.

      particularly when the school does discipline the student and the parents sue. Even if the school wins, the school looses.
