Usually people don't go out of their way to break things regardless of what they're doing.
Employees work for someone and they're paid to do their work. Tipping over cranes, crashing company trucks, blowing up nuclear reactor doesn't make the person at fault personally financially liable for the damage nor do they make them pay for insurance for such out of their paycheck. I'm sure this is all calculated for in their expenses.
Students pay the school to take classes and they're personally held financial liable for things that they break during the class. Why isn't such cost budgeted into tuition and special "fees"?
The two doesn't really add together. I can see employers or and schools want to recover the loss, but what prevents employers from collecting while schools openly collects it?
I'm sure it has something to do with law...
