I completely agree that we've got to begin teaching students the appropriate ways to interact in online communities. But I don't think that the student in question was out of line at all, based on the limited information that I have about the story. I am curious to know the final outcome of the student's suspension. Hopefully, stories like this one will encourage people to come to the same conclusions as you -- that we have an opportunity to teach here -- instead of the conclusion that the only sane thing to do is to lock down the Internet.
