Since breaking requires, well, breaking, I'd say no.

They should make a crime called simply "entering", but it would sound really stupid.
They do, Illegal Entry.

Is there any other kind of entry that's considered a crime?

Well for a start it was almost a very clever bit of trickery by the kid, he deserves a reward i'd think. Maybe emrolement to the Junior Republicans where they've been screwing people over to make themselves seem good for years.

But really this piece has no place in News Coverage. Can you say SLOW NEWS DAY.

Don't let Macross hear you say that. He might go on one of his rants about how you missed the point.

That kid's obviously not as smart as Ferris Beuller, who pulled off his grade changes without a hitch. Of course, maybe kids in the 80's were just more intelligent...

I remember once with some friends going through everyones (and I mean everyones - including teachers) personal "files" with all the info on grades, qualifications, even psych and IQ tests. Not to mention the "addendums" to files added by teachers.

Some helluva amusing reading.

When I was your age, I had to dredge five miles through the snow to change my grade.
