The Dung Beetle Award goes to...


The Academy of Dung Beetles' Award is being rolled towards the Texas judge who ordered that an eleventh grade Texas student who works two jobs to support herself and her siblings, be thrown in jail for 24 hours and ordered to pay a $100 fine for truancy.  She missed some classes due to exhaustion and  had been warned about truancy last year by the same judge. More here.
