IMHO Kav’s offenses were far more serious and he (and his family) chose to endure the public local humiliation and come back to UD to sort of right the wrong he did at UD. I think Sam will likely get no worse than what Kav’s did, provided he accepts his responsibility for his actions. Which in my mind seems pretty fair as this is his chance to grow and mature as a person…..
But with that said, you can never guess what these kangaroo student conduct courts will do….. I just hope it is done fairly.
I've formed an opinion based on the video(s) I saw because in my mind I can't think of any reasonable conclusion but that he was extremely intoxicated, causing a disturbance and struck a man in the face. At the end of the day, my opinion means nothing. Your point about Kavs is a very good one but video always makes any transgressions worse. You are 100% correct about the CoC hearings, we'll see what happens. Sometimes you look for a reason to give a kid a second chance, sometimes you look for an excuse to part ways. Who knows what all goes into that determination.
