And the college would have been pretty much required to take some action since most have a stated honor code as was already mentioned. Shawn knew what he was doing, and he was doing it maliciously. He wasn't trying to right a wrong or get justice, he was out to hurt that kid, possibly because his ego got bruised. That was over the top and it's people like that who will always, always be there like an ant at a picnic, ready to rat you out or fuck shit up so that they can feel smug. Shawn might be a nice guy, but shit like that just pisses me off. He had tons more options, instead he choose the most fucked up route.
