[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 384141, member: 1991"] "I think your suggestion has merit, I really do. I was already fully aware of tis opportunity but I felt it was totally inappropriate to call in the big guns when the little guns have still not yet been fired. In other words, how do you think the members of this committee will feel, especially considering most of them are already well aware of Wee and involved in his case from way back, when they realise they have been called in but the SG has not yet stepped up to the plate?

I vote for grasping at straws. maybe they thought that such a committee could do more, reach more or even enforce the plans. But if the school's own attorney can't do this, why should another committee of mostly the same people? Marg [/QUOTE]
