I teach at a Catholic school....not off today! My kids go to a different Catholic school and they are not off either!
Yes, well It would fall under either the HIPAA or the FERPA acts. Both of which are privacy acts, on is Protected Health Information, the other protects students personal information

And that's the issue I had with the article. It was very disingenuous. Exagerate the suspicion to begin with and then defend the honor. How noble of KW.

I stopped at the cleaners this morning and the lady running it was grumbling about the silly holiday
that the schools have off but everyone else has to work,
and it forced her to bring her young son into work with her as she had nothing else she could do.

Here's a twist, Missouri State has refused to even comment or acknowledge reports about their athletes getting arrested, citing
"Family Education Rights and Privacy Act"
and also declined to detail any disciplinary action, citing the same act.
What they need is a local reporter who published speculative and rumored stuff in order to clear the air on this.

It's been a while but I just wanted to re-visit this topic....
here is a perfect example of a FALSE POSITIVE drug test.
A drug test on a randomly selected participant of the 2007 NCAA tournament (just like what Ray Brown had), but even though the test was reported as positive, the kid was fully innocent and other factors were the cause of the positive result. It proves why the test results need to be viewed with care and why such results are generally kept private and NOT reported to the press.
This story also details how Chris Lofton wanted desperately to keep all of this quiet and secret. Thankfully they don't have press in Tennessee that digs for just the dirt and reports it even without confirmation.
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?id=3376961
"Lofton was picked randomly following the first-round win over Long Beach State to submit to an NCAA-mandated drug test. The results turned up positive"
"What was found on the test were high levels (of a certain steroid)........It can signify steroid use, and it is also a marker for cancer."
plus, there is no way anyone can ever prove a positive test, since BU has flatly declined to comment on it, and even
the newspaper admitted it was speculative and rumor. So I am still waiting for someone to respond to the challenge
and show me where it has been confirmed. If not confirmed then it is speculation and the media should not run with
speculation and rumor as if it fact.
