In Australia ( I'm not sure if this applies in the US ), we have a law that lets people with a mental illness who've committed a crime, have an easier sentence/no sentence at all.

Maybe you could debate on whether they should be treated like the rest of us?

My friend just told me they discussed this in class whether or not this student should be expelled or not.

Your BasilID makes me think of psychological evidence in court rulings. Stuff like, should a person get a weaker sentence if he/she's mentally disabled or something. Not exactly, but close enough.
