The concept of "zero tolerance," in which schools set mandatory penalties for certain infractions and recognize no mitigating circumstances, took a hit when the Maryland Board of Education reversed the suspensions of two students.

There are so many words in the English language that it's not surprising that the definitions for some of them have gotten mixed up over the years. It's possible that you've gone your entire life without realizing your mistakes.
