simpons-wedgie.gifTechLH in the WebmasterRadio.FM chat room informed me of a local6.com article named Principal Suspended After Giving Boy Wedgie.

In short a Montana, Livingston Principle of Park High School has been suspended for six days, two days without pay, for giving a student a wedgie. Superintendent Hannibal Anderson said;

It has been clearly recognized and stated that the behavior is inappropriate, unprofessional and unacceptable.

From Forbes:

Messerli cried Monday as he read a statement to the board and the public.

"I've made mistakes in my life, but none have had the impact that this one has had," he said.

He said his first reaction was to resign, but he wanted to "tackle this mess" head on.

"I want to live in a world where we don't have to hide when we screw up," he said.

Public comments about Messerli, voiced by students, parents and community members, ranged from reprimand to encouragement.

"What could be better than showing how you bounce back after a mistake?" community member Brad Snow said.

Here is a funny article on it.
