I picked this up third-hand from Amanda and Feministing but the hypocrisy factor is such that it deserves wider note:
Alysha Cosby waited four years to hear her name called at her high school graduation.
When it wasn't, she took matters into her own hands.
After the last graduate was asked to come forward to receive his degree at St. Jude Educational Institute's commencement Tuesday night, Cosby announced her own name and walked across the stage.
Cosby, who is pregnant, was told in March that she could no longer attend school, due to safety concerns. School officials also told her to complete her class work at home and said she could not participate in graduation...
The father of Cosby's child also is a senior at the school. He was allowed to participate in graduation.
