1. What I find ironic
Edited on Mon Oct-25-04 09:57 AM by Maestro
is that the article asks if it is appropriate for the universities to to manipulate the student and not be so one-sided. Oh please and Fox is not one-sided?

They're trying, however. Anti-GMO professors finding it hard to get tenure, and they're trying to defund universities so they can't reach as many people. But, on the whole, corporations are having a hard time getting sway over tenure decisions.

4. Teachers used to tell us bible stories even though it was not permitted
We had nothing to do while waiting for the bus to arrive, so one of the teachers would narrate stories.
