SEARCH AND SEIZURE: A student told a teacher at Parkview High School in
Bossier City, La., that sophomore Amanda Stiles was smoking in the
bathroom. The teacher confronted Stiles and searched her purse, but
found no cigarettes or lighters. She did, however, find something else:
Advil, an over-the-counter medication used to relieve headaches and
menstrual cramps. "Pills!" screamed the school administrators.
Possessing drugs on campus is a "zero tolerance" infraction, they point
out, so they expelled Stiles for a year. The expulsion was upheld by
the School Board's administrative committee and Superintendent Ken
Kruithof. (Shreveport Times) ...Thus perpetuating their smug
satisfaction that they're "doing something" about the "drug problem."
