Dilbert Principals

School declared a nut-free zone; some parents upset

Now, a Tuscaloosa-area principal has followed suit by banning not only peanuts but all nuts. And, once again the Board of Education is reviewing the policy and I'm guessing will reverse it. In this case, there actually is a student with a nut allergy. However, it would be simple enough to keep the student away from areas in which nuts were eaten, and the district has done this at other schools. Still, better to inconvenience everyone in the school than to simply have one kindergartener eat his lunch in the classroom!
