One thing that hasn't been brought up yet (although the above statement
gives me cause to mention) is that the courts do not accord minors the same
rights as adults.  For instance, corporal punishment is allowed in high
schools, but, to my knowledge, is banned in universities.  The right to an
attorney, a phone call upon arrest, etc., are not necessarily granted to
juveniles.  I wonder if search & seizure laws are any different for
juveniles vs. adults.

Of course, a school parking lot might contain cars from students under 18,
as well as 18 & above.  That throws in a nice wrinkle.  I would presume,
however, that the faculty parking lot would almost exclusively have adults
parking in it.
