I think that was in a lot of places. I remember having trouble in Wisconsin and yes they can mess with your grades if they want too. I was there for awhile and they thought I was from California. It got physical until I did then it stopped.
What they found out later I was from Wisconsin since the 1800s on my fathers side not Calif and my family ancestors helped build it. One even donated a box of gold to a Church. Gold bugs go way back too lol
California be a lot of things but never experienced that in California ever.
So not just the south and kids can be stupid.Especially in a place there’s nothing to do but drink beer and talk about what deer you almost or did hit on the road lol

Mass approaching the speed of light it would become infinite. Interesting

There was a little more to the high school problem ..My daughter was a year ahead of my son and graduated second in her class because she had teachers that didnt like her because she was born in NJ…and wasent a Southerner ..She got discouraged and lost interest by Graduation time yet was 2nd in her class.One of her teachers was outright discriminating against her..This was 1980  and Richmond was a very Southern place then..My wife went to school for her to find out what the problem was ,she would come home crying often..The teacher apologized after my wife confronted her and told her she was from Charlottesville Va,and her daughter couldent help where she was born..The teacher said she didnt think her sympathies  showed and it wouldent happen anymore…So after her brother was first in his class the Southern mentality was still there and he experienced it ,but he wouldent make any fuss about it..He was never the confrontation type ….and asked me not to do or say anything …BUT..The final outrage was when they didnt ask him to give the commencement address to the class using the excuse that it was their policy to let the Students select the speaker ..I later learned that my daughter was not on National Honor Society despite  straight a’s  ,I said what the hell is going on.?  She found out it was a popularity contest and had nothing to do with academics despite its name..and some other girl that didnt like her kept her off the list in favor of her personal friend and thier clique .  Such was the South at that time…They couldent do anything about my  kids grades ,but sure did favor thier own…in every other way including Scholarships ..
