Ok, what she did was something stupid, but remember, how many times good scientists have failed like this, this is actually thinking out of the box, no one was in the vicinity, she was clearly not using this to hurt anyone, the intention was clear here, a OUT-OF-BOX experiment, she was sure no one would give her the go, since it might have been as per her judgement, on the line of safety. So what? if it went bad? If it had went good, you all be calling her a genius or something! Expulsion from the school? This is ridiculous! At max suspend her for a week, so she thinks it through, her parents should sue this school, if nothing, for causing a good kid such trauma, a good student gets devastated by a expulsion, cause it sticks, on her hard work.
No wonder we asians are talking up the good jobs in America, if this is the policy for such out-of-box thinking.
If I had done that, ten people would have asked my well being here in India, and at max, I would have had to pay the cost of destruction, and later, me and my friends would laugh it off, since its pretty badass.. blown up the roof pfft!
India is a country of apathy. Nobody really cares till they are directly affected. Even if they are - like you blew up someone's wall with your "experiment", or hit a car with your bike, etc, there is not really a lot you can do about it. I have also personally seen cases where accidents with deaths got little to no punishments.
I am not saying what happened to this teen was right. But you can't compare that with India.

I don't feel that race is relevant here.
race is not, but educational background is. India & China are producing more graduates, post graduates, then any other country in the world. This is a known fact.
