Friday, October 26, 2012 COLLEGE AND BEYOND... *** begin quote *** While I was in high school, I decided maybe I would like to be an electrical engineer. My guidance counselor told me to take German because all the best books for that were written in German – so I took a class in German – big mistake. The teacher had such a strong German accent, I didn’t know if he was speaking English or German. I dropped out after only 2 months. I then thought maybe Civil Engineering would be it. I knew 2 guys who had graduated a year before me who were going to Manhattan College for Civil Engineering. They said to go out of state for college. They had to wear a jacket and tie to class and, since there were no girls attending Manhattan College, there was no social life. Plus, since they lived at home, their parents expected them to get a night job to help pay for the school. *** end quote *** [JR: That's what the "Mounties" were for!!!] # - # - # - # - # 2012-Oct-28 @ 17:52 |

2012-Nov-03ENDNOTE: Not so free speech in "The Pepuls Republic of Wiskonsin"http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2012/10/12/h-s-yearbook-wont-include-students-baby-suicide-victim/H.S. Yearbook Won’t Include Student’s Baby, Suicide Victim October 12, 2012 6:11 PM *** begin quote *** MENAHGA, Minn. (WCCO) – High school yearbooks are lined with memories both good and bad, but in Northern Minnesota, one high school wants to keep a few things from its pages. A controversy is brewing at Menahga High School over the issues of teen pregnancy and suicide. Kyle Kenyon would have been a senior this year, but committed suicide last January. “The only way I can hold it together is with all the support we have,” said Peggy Havnes, Kenyon’s mother. Around 100 classmates have signed a petition to get a memorial page in their yearbook, something Havnes would also like to see. “I do think we need to use it as a teaching tool, because if we can prevent any other family from going through this, then we’ve accomplished something,” she said. Trying to accomplish school can also be tough if you’re a new mother, but Stephanie Myers says her daughter is helping her reach her graduation goals. *** end quote *** One thing you after admire about the liberal elite is their unique ability to rewrite history. Not that parochial school was much different, but at least parents volunteered their children into these reeducaton camps. The Government Skrules, aka prison preparation 101, are forced on most. I would think both of these events are both teaching moments and events worthy of memorialization. FIrst Amendment issues aside. Yes, those pesky rules that say Gooferment can NOT regulate speech. Currently interpreted as "no no, if more speech is possible and it ain't fire in a crowded theater". This seems to be a BIG first amendment issue. Given that all schools with the exception of Liberty University are nothing but glorified arms of the Gooferment. IT would seem that these are fact. Sad facts of "prison" life in these youngsters' lives and should be captured. --30-- |
