It should be emphasized that this was a HIGH SCHOOL reading program--you know, a school populated by teenagers who already know more swear words than most adults and for whom questioning authority is a right of passage.
Realizing that having a book banned is going to mean that every student in the school is going to want to read it to see why, Tor Books has arranged for 200 free copies to be delivered to the school.
This principal might have heeded Ms. Godwin's words before he acted.
