MATT SMITH spoke of Re: Tenure to RANDY EDWARDS on 03-02-97
MS>RE>    Well, I'd say that the 2 year suspension would've been far
MS>RE> more  punishment than what your mythical student would've gotten.
MS>    I wouldn't.  The student will have a black mark on any possible
MS>college  application, 
Not Necessarily......and if the kid wasn't interested in going to 
college then this wouldn't matter anyway.  If he was interested in 
attending college I'm sure he could find *some* college that would be 
willing to take his tuition money.
something that the suspended teacher need not
MS>worry about. 
Not important anyway since the teacher probably has finished his/her 
college degree...at least I would hope so...
  The student would (likely) have a criminal record,
Which is usually wiped away if the kid doesn't repeat...
MS>something this teacher  apparently won't.  Those two things would
MS>hurt the hypothetical student's  career long after the two years were
MS>over.    Not true....
 And while he was suspended, the hypothetical student would
MS>be unlikely  to get a high-paying manufacturing job at his age. 
Not to mention he would have trouble getting into law school...or would 
he??
For that matter, many college graduates have trouble getting into a 
"high-paying" manufacturing job don't they?  
Heck Matt, he'd have trouble getting a job as an astronaut too....so 
what's the point?
