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. |

Depriving a child of graduation must be recognized and categorized for what it really is- that is, a punishment of the highest magnitude and one which should be used only for the most reprehensible and persistent offenses. >> Agreed. (Not to mention that this also punishes the parents and grandparents who've been waiting for 18 years to watch). Also agree 1-3 -day suspension would be OK. Or maybe just do the clean-up and pay for any damage (unless teachers had already had to do the clean-up). Or maybe community service at the zoo or SPCA!!!
