The problem I have with the knee jerk reaction against this administrator is if this student had been allowed to get away with his actions, what would other students do to top it?

My physics class completely dis-assembled the teacher's car in the parking lot of the school when he had to leave it overnight since it wouldn't start - and we re-assembled it in his classroom [all in one night].

That prank is STILL being talked about 34 years later ...

BTW: The principal KNEW that we did it - but couldn't prove it. He called us ALL into his office, yelled at the top of his lungs for a minute [for the benefit of his secretary], then quietly told us it was the BEST prank he had ever seen. He then burst out laughing for about three minutes ...

'Course he made us "volunteer" to dis-assemble/re-assemble it in the parking lot. Along the way, we figured out that the points were shot, so we bought a new unit and if fired right up with one turn of the key ...
