even if it was a government class and you're debating politics, the teacher has to remain neutral and let the kids make up their own minds.

I think that the teacher should be free to express his opinion, so long as he makes it clear (as he seemed to do here) that it's just his opinion and that them disagreeing with him will not affect their grades. That having been said, I think this was an inappropriate discussion for a geography class. -------------------- |

I hate flavor, if i could have it my way i would have all my classes taught by an mono-toned, emotionless golem who merely presents the facts. He also would eat staples. /set sarcasm "0" |

I like that setup in one epsiode of Futurama when Fry goes back to college... electrified seats! I also liked the chalk board that changed cursive into print. -------------------- |

If you have to badmouth politicians to keep from being a "mono-toned, emotionless golem who merely presents the facts" then you're a terrible teacher and a waste of my tax dollars. |

Such as, I really strongly support the use of a certain type of stats in psyc (because psyc is a science), so I'm going to push those on people, and not necessarily cover the things I think aren't important or are "bad". It should stay in topic though :\ -------------------- *the* aggie bitch

It should stay in topic though :\ It's completely different in college and high school. In college I had plenty of professors give personal opinions on several subjects, but I expected it out of them and felt like I was old enough and mature enough to make up my own mind. Plus, I'm paying for the education and if I don't like it, I can drop the class or go to a different school. In high school and younger then the kids are more impressionable and they are forced to take specific classes with specific teachers, atleast we were when I was in school. And every one of us that pay taxes pay that teacher's salary through property tax. -------------------- LANCE IS PRO-CENSORSHIP! HE IS CENSORING MY LOVE FOR THE LORD!

And BTW, I fucking LOVE David Cross's standup CD's, I listen to them all the damn time. I didn't click the link, but I love when he goes through the whole line of eating at the restaurant that serves gold sheets on desserts.
