Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

Bainbridge Florida Times-Union August 3, 2006 Country western singers Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have been getting far more attention than the publishing giant with a similar name that has been quietly gathering in our tax dollars like a hungry squirrel getting ready for winter... ______________________________________________ This is certainly one of the more ludicrous openings that you will ever find even if you search with the enthusiasm of a hungry squirrel getting ready for winter. It's hard to believe that anyone could go downhill after such a ridiculous beginning, but Bainbridge manages to pull it off nicely. Even more remarkable is that this exercise in silliness was posted by someone who works as a teacher of literacy skills to teachers. If nothing else, the ARN list is certainly one constant stream of surprises. Art
