Like I said before, the way things are done today are much different than the past. Our litigation-enabling society creates a lot of issues for someone that steps in to help the guy on the ground - innocent or not. Speaking of which, the school will probably have a lawsuit on their case if kids were actually expelled merely for "not stepping in to help."

I guess you missed the entire point. The school is PRIVATE. They can make a rule that must be followed in order to attend. They make the code of conduct and adapt it as needed.
The majority of colleges pride themselves on producing tomorrow's leaders. If you can not even stand up for a defenseless individual getting pummeled how can you honestly say that you can stick up for the employees under you when the time would come?
I believe you are letting your personal fears run wild and now want to blame the school.
I am not even close to 6' and have never had a problem standing up for what is right. So don't drag a height requirement into the argument.
