Principal Returns After Wedgie-Gate

The principal of Park High School in Livingston, Montana can back to school this week after a six day time-out. Principal Eric Messerli (Mesarali, Meserli) was met by Superintendent Hannibal Anderson's and the school board to decide his fate after giving a student soccer player a wedgie during a JV game. The girls soccer coach who witnessed this rough-housing said it was playfulness gone too far. (On a roll, he later tracked down the Chess team for a round of swirlies in the boys bathroom. Fun times for all!)
Though he had at first wanted to resign he said at the meeting, "I want to live in a world where we don't have to hide when we screw up," he said. Taking responsibility really is overrated.
