I understand schools' need to eliminate drugs on campus. I even understand the zero-tolerance policy and have tried to make sure my kids understand it's not ok to carry Advil yourself, even if you are just taking it for cramps or because you injured yourself in a cross country meet the day before. But a strip search? This case of the girl in Arizona was beyond my comprehension. I'll admit, I never really looked into the arguments FOR the search.
