"I'm disappointed that several of our students chose to disregard the school's rules. It's disheartening when any student has to be suspended or expelled and it's a process that involves serious review and consideration. We insist on maintaining a campus environment that commands mutual respect, fosters academic excellence and encourages learners to fulfill their best potential. Indiscretions resulting in disciplinary action are common in schools all over the world. Unfortunately, because of my name these common infractions place the Academy in the media spotlight."

These students should be grateful they were given a chance and the privilege to learn in a very special school established by Oprah. What a shame some of these kids can afford to do such stupid acts. They are blessed enough, why do this crazy stuff in the first place.
This is just typical black behavior. Breaking the rules, and offensive criminal sexual violence are what blacks do. It's part of their culture so don't be a racist and expect blacks to live up to White standards.
