Eerily reminiscent of the traditional Western school system, which was undoubtedly influenced by Catholic monasteries and their harsh, barbaric indoctrination process. Though corporal punishment has been abolished for the most part, even today most schools are built on this same framework where students, like the monks, are treated as prisoners and "disciplined" with dress codes, chastity, failing grades, detention, suspension, and expulsion (excommunication) to prevent them from exercising their free will.
