Oprah defends record of South African school

Story here. Excerpt:

"Last month, four students were expelled and three others suspended. South African media at the time said they were accused of trying to force students into relationships and to engage in sexual contact.

Winfrey herself hasn't given details of the misconduct. But she said in the newspaper interview that it was 'insulting' that the family of one of the expelled girls had complained to the press even though she had been warned before about her behavior.
...
'The majority of girls are thriving, really fulfilling the dream and vision I had,' Winfrey told the newspaper. 'They really have exceeded any expectations I had for them.'

'In spite of everything that's happened, what keeps me inspired and hopeful is the heart of every girl, because they are wonderful, they are magnificent.'"

I truly wonder whether or not Oprah would've said that if the students were *boys* -- just a thought.
