<p>What a wonderful addition to Wellesley College - strong young woman stands up to bully principal!</p>
<p>High</a> Schooler Protests 'Slut-Shaming' Abstinence Assembly</p>
<p>I am speechless. Wait. Wow. What century do we live in…</p>
<p>I applaud her too and hope the backlash does not destroy her future. Although more than likely it will only help to propel her…</p>
<p>As a Wellesley mother, I saw this and agree completely. As if Wellesley would react to the threatened “phone call from the principal” with ANYTHING other than “you go, girl.”</p>
<p>Yup, principal doesn’t know his colleges very well.</p>
<p>“You go, girl,” indeed. :)</p>
<p>Way to go, young lady!!! We need more people like you!</p>
<p>Where can I donate to her college fund?</p>
<p>The tweet from Wellesley was the icing on the cake of how great this story is. This girl is clearly ready to get out of HS and the mentality of some HS administrators. She is an adult, or will be very soon, and can’t be bullied by some guy on a power trip any more!</p>
<p>I’m almost disappointed that the principal didn’t make that call to the college. After a crazy week, this story made my day.</p>
<p>Dad here:
Haha “I’ll call one of the top LACs in the country, Hillary Clinton’s Alma matter, and tell them that you refused to spew lies about birth control only to propagate our highly religious (yet immoral) conservative hate speech…you’ll be rescinded for sure now girly”</p>
<p>…what a moron!! I feel sorry for the kids that can’t escape that abusive environment.</p>
<p>The tweet from Wellesley at the bottom is the best part.</p>
<p>I know - I so wish the idiot principal had made the call - I hope this gets enough attention that it circles back around and nips him in the a$$!!!</p>
<p>Isn’t education wonderful? (She has been in hundreds, if not thousands, of schools across the country. So if one girl protests, she just moves on to the next one.) Note that not a single teacher objected.</p>

<p>Wellesley has definitely made the right choice in accepting a talented student who is willing to stand for principle. </p>
<p>The principal in this story needs to be clapped in stocks and ridiculed with cream pies and rotten vegetables. </p>
<p>He’s one reason why K-12 education…especially administration is stereotyped in some quarters as attracting petty authoritarians who get their joys from asserting a “Respect my authoritah!” attitude.</p>
<p>She has my applause too-- and the tweet from Wellesley was truly understated awesomeness!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Really? The stereotype that stood out to me was that this incident happened in West Virginia. IOW, it was the rural southerner want-more-Christianity-in-the-schools stereotype that jumped out at me, not any stereotype about high school principals or administrators.</p>
<p>^^ Have to agree with Pizzagirl here - as soon as I read “West Virgina,” I knew what kind of story this would be. And I say this as someone born in the rural south…</p>
<p>Don’t mess with a Wellesley girl! Good for her.</p>
<p>Pam Stenzel has been in hundreds, if not thousands of schools all over the country. Nothing special to West Virginia.</p>
<p>Not a single teacher stood up for the student, even after the fact. That’s what is really disgusting.</p>
<p>As a Wellesley alum so proud of this soon to be student and my college!</p>
<p>My great grandmother graduated from Wellesley - And I am POSITIVE she is cheering from the heavens for this young woman. LOVE the tweet!! Funny thing about retaliation… those who employ it, usually suffer most. Karma people</p>
<p>

<p>First movie characters I thought of when I read this…Dean Wormer and Douglas C. Neidermayer from Animal House and President Garcia Thompson from PCU.</p>
<p>Stereotype which came out at me…petty authoritarian educrat too full of him/herself and drunk on power.</p>
