Pomp and circumstance indeed

The principal of Brewbaker Technology Magnet High School in Montgomery has declared that the valedictorian, who took part in a senior prank and has already received her punishment for it, can't speak at tonight's graduation ceremony. Officials at St. Jude Educational Institute, also in Montgomery, tried unsuccessfully to bar a pregnant student who completed all of the requirements from even participating in Tuesday's graduation ceremony at all.

Does anyone else see a problem here?
