On a forum I read there is a debate as to whether colleges offer c.p. as an alternative to expulsion or suspension. A couple insist that they know first hand. Some have sited vague references to it in student handbooks.
What do you think? Is it possible?
I mean, if the student knows the policy, agrees and signs a release, maybe?
 
I can not give you a specific example but it wouldn't surprise me in the least. It's a very big world with a lot of diverse opinions.

For Yada Yada Yada There is nothing to debate about corporal punishment in K-12. It already exists in a lot of school districts obviously with the support of the district residents.
 
If it is true, it is ridiculous. If a student does something that warrants expulsion...I've never heard of suspension at the college level...they need to be expelled, not given the choice of withstanding some physical pain instead. I can't imagine this is true. Typically, if you are expelled from one college, you will not be accepted at any other college, it is reserved for pretty serious offenses.
 
If this is true this is the stupidest thing I have ever heard, and not because I am against corporal punishment, because for one I am not, but by the time a person gets to college they should have out grown what ever stupid bs they would do to become expelled or suspended, which honestly the main thing that would cause them to become expelled is cheating.

Now if you want a real debate the question should be as follows:

"If parents sign a waiver should corporal punishment be allowed in schools from grade school until high school graduation?"

Naturally there would be stipulations and regulations regarding who could administer the punishment, when and where, and witnesses and so on and so forth, but that is not what is being discussed here. That would be a good debate.
