I'd say that's just the result of our rediculous propensity for litigation.
Everyone's scared to even say anything remotely out of line for fear of
being sued into ashes. "Someone said Jesus in class!" (lawsuit). "Someone
didn't say Jesus enough in class!" (lawsuit). "That school's mascot is an
American Indian!" (lawsuit), etc. So now administrators have to act like
gormless idiots.

This is only partly in their defense; even without the threat of lawsuits, I
imagine they'd still be pretty moronic....
