A staffer assigned to quell violence at a Philadelphia high school was knocked unconscious in what one union official called the worst assault since a Germantown High School teacher's neck was broken in 2007 by a student.
Alphonso Stevens, known as a conflict-resolution specialist, suffered a fractured skull, concussion, and other injuries.
The incident happened Friday when students were changing classes at Bartram High School. A 17-year-old student got into a verbal exchange with Stevens then grabbed him by the arm "and pushed him into the wall," said Raven Hill, a district spokeswoman.
Stevens fell to the floor, unconscious. He was taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania for treatment and is now recovering at home.
Jerry Jordan, president of the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, said the attack on Stevens was "the worst injury" he has seen since a student punched Frank Burd in the face several times in 2007, causing him to fall and break his neck.

Real Men of Genius.......here’s to you, Mr. Conflict-Resolution Specialist.......

The school’s response will be to require all conflict resolution specialists to wear helmets.
Conflicts are always resolved after Whitey McCracker-Honkey gets beaten and street cred is increased.

The GDP of Pennsylvania would go up if Philly was nuked.
When you let the predators run the zoo, no animal is safe. I think that if some of these predators started having...accidents, things would improve very quickly. Just sayin.
Hmm...my high school’s conflict resolution specialist was the boys’ PE teacher. Former NFL lineman. I don’t recall anyone ever taking a swing at him. Must be because he was such a great psychologist.
as a rule, if you are going to be a conflict resolution specialist, it's better if you are BIGGER than those whose conflict you are resoluting... prolly some pencilnecked geek who thought his title entitled him to not having to get his hands dirty
Aye, now that you mention it, I remember that dude
Anyone else remember the line from The Fifth Element, the one just after Bruce Willis shoots one of the ‘terrorists’ point blank in the forehead.
“Who else wants to negotiate”?
“No one?”
He and I were seat mates a couple of times, that's all it took for me to decide I didn't want to associate with him anymore. Those days are gone, now the inmates run the asylum.
