    I'm not sure how I feel about this...

    Getting expelled from a religious school could be the best thing that ever happened to someone.

    Thats what I was thinking. But no one deserves that disruption to their education, which I'd imagine in some cases might lead to an inability to get into university etc.

    This is a good thing. In a lot of rural communities, it's either an education from the Catholic church, or a public school that will get you nowhere.

    Sounds like a nice bill that needs to pass.

    Hm... I think it good thing but just because they can't suspend/expel a student doesn't mean the school won't make their lives hell in other ways... :icon_sad:
