Pre-Columbine mass shootings: Some kid rode his bike up the stairs during class changes and was denied walking the stage at his graduation for "seriously endangering himself and the entire student body."

The thing with the bike must have been long before graduation, right? So there were probably consequences already. Seems kind of petty to deny him the stage.

Nah this definitely sounds like a situation where "it's the end of your senior year and there's no other way we can effectively reprimand this behavior" and he might have already been a problem student.
