It is       unclear what 'action' the school intends to take against those       who violate the policy.              --        ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.50        * Origin: Time moves in one direction, memory in another. -WG- (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 153/757 154/10       SEEN-BY: 203/0 218/840 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114 702 229/424 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 452 664 700 981 1017 240/5832 249/206 307 317 400       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854 301/1 317/3 322/757 335/364       SEEN-BY: 342/200 423/81 633/280 770/1 4500/1       PATH: 221/1 6 229/664 426           |
