My South Carolina readers will love this one. Two students were expelled for kissing (or allegedly perhaps more) on a school bus in Columbia, SC. We don't have all the facts so it is hard to form an opinion on this one, but if it was just kissing ... it does sound a bit severe for what appears to be otherwise stand-up students.

Any readers in the district or around there care to share the latest rumors (and/or facts) floating around this one?

UPDATE: According to the ABA Journal, the parents of the expelled students are going to challenge the school board's decision in Court. So, we should be hearing more from this case.
