Regardless, I recommend everyone else avoid the urge to become ersatz guardian angels, or internet vigilantes.

If this is real, if someone actually involved contacts FIRST, that will be enough to get it resolved.

If it turns out that I'm wrong, that will be a new conversation.

Correct?
Sure, contacting FIRST might be what we would all want... But for someone afraid of blowback within their team and/ or school, it may not appear like an attractive choice. Receiving individual, directed mentoring and advice on the issue, being able to go back and forth with thoughts and talk about the issue is an improvement over the current situation, and could lead to better resolutions. In this case, I think we need to look at what's best for the student involved.
