Ethical Dilemas

In 2009 North Oconee High School Principle John Osbourne recieved a letter recommending he be fired for, "insubordination and willful neglect of his duties for comments made to the Athens Banner-Herald." This was published 3-days after the Athens Banner-Herald published an article stating comments from Osbourne about rival games between the two Oconee County high schools.

In the article Osbourne made comments stating North Oconee High School needed to stop playing rival Oconee County High School until they are "equitable." He went on to describe that North Oconee High School didn't have the facilities to compete with the neighboring high school.

Osbourne did end up being fired because of what was published. I thought of these article's when we were discussing ethical dilemmas because of how Osbourne voiced his opinion and ended up being fired.
