GALESBURG, Illinois (AP) -- Nadia Trent still wants an apology, but for now she'll settle for getting the diploma her high school withheld from her and four other students when cheers erupted for them at their graduation.
It's nice to know that when you know something feels wrong that the idiots out there that caused it actually wake up to fix it. This next portion made my point all the more understandable.
Denisar cited talks with the Illinois State Board of Education, which has said it cannot support the district's decorum policy because it makes students responsible for behavior they cannot control.
It's nice to know that common sense is not gone and that idiots will not ruin special moments by repressing feelings.

They never really could deny her the diploma, everybody knows that, and, there is some validity to not making the student responsible, however...
The students could/should have talked to their friends/family and explained the rule in advance.
Don't you just hate it when a few always seem to ignore the rules/standards? Me too.
