Suspension of student for raising money for cancer
I've removed the section:


 * In March 2012 Padua College principal Christopher Houlihan was involved in a controversy following the suspension of a student for shaving their head to raise money for cancer. Radio commentator Neil Mitchell described the punishment as illogical and labeled it as sensible as a "Local council decision." When Houilhan called the student's hair "extreme" Mitchell referred to former Victorian Police Commissioner Simon Overland who also has a shaved head.

It is sourced, and has been in the news a little bit - there are two articles I've seen so sourcing isn't a problem. I did have a couple of concerns, though. First, there is nothing that says the student was suspended for "shaving their head to raise money for cancer" - the student was suspended for breaking the uniform policy, and when the reason became clear the suspension was lifted. The other is that it seems like a relativly minor event to get so much weight in the article. I'm happy if consensus is to add it back, but I thought that it warranted discussion first. :) - Bilby (talk) 00:12, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
