User:Goot Edrze/Educational Malpractice

Educational Malpractice-Many educators in the USA are immune from lawsuits that attack "Quality of Education", "Professional Judgment", or "Administrative Decisions". This allows the dismissal of students for reasons that many would consider arbitrary and capricious. The cases setting precident for this include Alsides v. Brown Brown Institute, Ltd., 592 N.W.2d 468, 472n.2. (Minn. Ct. App. 1999), Ross v. Creighton University, 957 F.2d 410, 414n.2.(7th Cir. 1992) and Gally v. Columbia University, 22 F. Supp.2d 199, 207 (S.D.N.Y. 1998). These decisions are based on public policy considerations that include "the lack of a satisfactory standard of care by which to evaluate an educator".
