APS' Character Counts! Conundrum

Conundrum;

"A paradoxical, insoluble, or difficult problem; a dilemma."

The leadership of the APS handouts out a pamphlet entitled;

CHARACTER IS THE HEART OF NEW MEXICO

In one place in the pamphlet, the importance of role modeling
is thoroughly substantiated.

In another, the Pillar of Trustworthiness is outlined
including the tenet of honesty.

In the past, the leadership of the APS had a role modeling clause in their code of conduct. it read;

In no case shall the standard of conduct for an adult
be lower than the standard of conduct for students.

The language bound them as role models
of the student standard of conduct.
It was removed; deliberately, and with forethought.

Someone in the leadership of the APS has to summon
the character and the courage to be a role model
of the Pillar of Trustworthiness,
including the requirement to be honest,

about why they have abdicated
as role models of the student standard of conduct.

They have to role model the character and the courage
to explain, defend, or deny,
that they have excepted themselves from accountability
as role models of the student standard of conduct.

You see their paradoxical, insoluble, and difficult problem;
their dilemma?

They are damned if they do, and they are damned if they don't.
