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. |

Hi all. MySpace and 49 Attorneys General announced a new agreement today - ostensibly to address concerns of online sexual predators. You can read what I have to say about all this on my blog: http://csriu.wordpress.com > From my blog: The bottom line is that it is not possible to create effective legal or technology ³fixes² to substitute for involved parenting. The young people whose parents are not sufficiently and effectively involved will always be at higher risk. And therefore, we need to develop effective risk prevention approaches. And we need to help all young people, and their parents, learn how to limit the potential that they will attract dangerous attention, to recognize if someone is trying to manipulate them into agreeing to a sexual relationship, and what to do if this is happening.
