... and rising costs

No support for the legal fine came from an authority, Mr. McIntyre. The costs would be outrageous, he thought, and the chances of winning non-existent.

"This clause which allows the punishment of any student for 'bringing disgrace on the college' is too vague," said Mrs. Garrett. It is a dangerous loophole which can be interpreted far too widely. A quite flimsy pretext could be used to Justify the punishment of a student under this all-inclusive clause. She suggested that this matter could well be more clearly defined so that any student could at least know just what the regulations did require.
