* One in seven students is either a bully or a victim. Seventy-one percent of students report incidents of bullying as a problem at their school.

Make that seven out of seven at Hyde.

Hyde is rife with bullies in both the student population and the faculty. Not surprising is that the worst offenders on campus are those who are alums. Seems the message of character and integrity didn't take hold. I think the reason for the bullish attitude is a compensation method for lack of qualification to be a real leader. If not actually qualified to teach, it must be covered up somehow, and intimidation appears to be the method of choice. Real growth, growth that challenges authority and the decisions being made for you by others isn't actually encouraged. They want conformity for the sake of community. Not a community of strong minded individuals. Pity the fool who thinks for him or herself.
Curious George:
It's funny how many experts have opinions on how to handle bullies, none of them seem to get that this psycho-babble doesn't work in the real world.
Teddy Roosevelt had a theory too. Walk softly and carry a big stick. After all, how does our military handle bullies. This seems to be the only thing that really works.

Im with teddy. I personally think that the only way to handle a bully is to beat the crap out of them, or at least try to. They normally back down. (that was my experience anyway) theyll be pissed, but theyll back down.
Even this isnt necessarily a guarantee that theyll leave you alone, though. If they are thugs as well as cowards, theyll sic their faggoty homie friends on you.. or, theyll just blow your head off.

I couldn't agree more.
Of course, the real reason a lot of parents ship their kids off to Hyde is to turn them into well-behaved and duly appreciative Stepford children. Those fine "five words" are but window dressing and marketing hoopla, and bear no relation to reality. :D
