Male Student Suspended For A Year After Hugging Teacher. Boy loses scholarship and chance to graduate to false allegation of sexual harassment.

The way I read it "wrapped his arms around her back and front" makes it sound like he approached her from behind. Which is pretty inappropriate for the teacher-student relationship. But even if I misunderstood that, according to the article, she had already warned him about hugging. It's not really a right to hug someone who doesn't want to be hugged...

Yeah, it might have been an excessive hug, but the point here is this guy got a YEAR suspension. Students at my school stole $10,000 worth of computers and were back in school the following week! Shit, girls do this stuff to male teachers all the time. I really, really hate it and feel uncomfortable when my students do this to me b/c I'm afraid someone is gonna think I'm a creeper. But I'm in in a catch 22 b/c if I tell, I might be considered a creeper. But dang I wouldnt give the girls a years suspension!

False allegation? I mean him hugging the teacher was caught on tape. The question isn't wether it happened, but rather how appropriate is it? Is it okay for somebody to have their space violated if said behavior has been previously discussed as inappropriate?
