applied to minorities, a trend that is largely reflected and reinforced in policies. From a legal perspective, many questions are raised as to the
constitutionality of applying punitive disciplinary measures to students, seeing that expulsions and suspensions prohibit and limit student access to
education. Consequently, micro–level disciplinary alternatives have been developed, which aim to rehabilitate "offenders" rather than punish
them. These alternatives offer a balance between discipline and the risk of overcriminalization, and include counseling, anger management
sessions, victim–offender mediation, and peer judiciaries. One central question that is raised throughout this discussion is the objective of the

their behavior is wrong. This then relates to the
