Question Presented (from Petition)

1. (a) Are the educational institutions allowed to cover their criminal wronging
against the students by labelling it as student discipline?
If so, where is the fine line separating the two definitions?
(b) Many attorneys say the courts are not supposed to second guess the behavior of
the private universities if they do not receive any federal funds. Where does the court
stand on this issue?
(c) Are the students of private universities considered second class citizens with bare
minimum legal protections including violation of their civil and human rights?
(d) Can the decisions made by US courts against a student litigant still remain lawful
even after putting his/her lawyer under duress by threatening to destroy the lawyer 's
career to extract concessions and playing ball with the opposing side?

2. (a) Can the US violate the civil and human rights of its citizens for the sake of
extracting concessions from foreign powers by appeasing them, in the name of greater
good?
(b) Do foreign born authors living under the jurisdiction of the United States
constitution have full first amendment rights or are they supposed to keep their
mouths shut not to offend the foreign powers because they can go after the family
members of the authors?

3. Are the defendants allowed to change/reverse or disown their statements made in
a lower court by using brand new attorneys in the upper courts?

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Are educational institutions allowed to cover criminal wrongdoing against students by labeling it as student discipline, and do students of private universities have full legal protections under civil and human rights?
