24. Well ....
Let's say that the student should have had the right to attend the prom with her date. So, discrimination might be an issue there.

Let's also say that the school has every right to cancel their prom, as they see fit if there is no legal obligation to host one.

Now, let's inquire as to the reasons for canceling the event. What was the primary motive for doing so?

In my opinion, if the sole intent was to prevent a lesbian student from attending with her date, then that sounds worthy of investigation and suggests prejudice and even spite to me.
