A group of high school students in Berwyn, Illinois held an anti-war protest on the school’s campus last Thursday, Nov. 1st:

“Over 70 students participated in a sit-in against the Iraq War on All Saint’s Day, Thursday, November 1st. It began third hour when dozens of students gathered quietly in the lunchroom at Morton West High School and refused to leave. The administrators and police became involved immediately and locked down the school for a half hour after class ended. Students report that they were promised that there would be no charges besides cutting classes if they took their protest outside so as not to disturb the school day. The students complied, and were led to a corner outside the cafeteria where they sang songs and held signs while classes resumed.

“Despite a police line set up between the protestors and the student body, many other students joined the demonstration. Organizers say they chose November first because it is the Christian holy day called the feast of All Saints and a national day of peace. They wrote a letter and delivered it to Superintendent, Dr. Ben Nowakowski who was present at the time, stating the reason for their protest.

“Deans, counselors and even the Superintendent tried to change the minds of a few, mainly those students with higher GPA scores to abandon the protest. The school called the homes of many of the protestors. Those whose parents arrived before the end of school and took their students home, or left before the protest ended at the final bell, received 3-5 days suspension. All others, an estimated 37 received 10 days suspension and expulsion papers. Parents report that Nowakowski stated those who are seventeen will also face police charges.”

TSA breakdown. At least they stopped the Sippy Cup-Packin’ Mama:

A credit card scandal in Dallas public schools has been in the news recently, with reports of millions of dollars flagrantly charged up on credit cards issued to principals and others in the school district.

“I think for the most part they have to satisfy the public, and somebody big has got to go,” says one arrogant principal who managed to charge up close to a quarter million dollars, with purchases including several flat screen TVs. Another scam-artist principal managed to charge up even more, including purchases for wedding ribbons.

Even if all of these purchases were for legitimate in-school use (doubtful), it’s very questionable to give people a free rein to buy whatever they deem prudent. It’s idiotic, once you’ve put such a program in place, to not track what’s really going on. I think most sensible businesses establish some notion of a “budget” to control this sort of fraud and abuse.

At least in the private sector, these schmucks would likely be out of a job, and would probably be required to pay back the money. But one woman who admitted guilt was only placed on administrative leave–not even fired (yet)!

I’ve seen nothing in the various stories that suggest this money will ever be paid back (I might have missed it). My suspicion is that taxpayers, as usual, will be forced to foot the bill for the theft, waste, and fraud perpetrated by government employees.

“A Republican state lawmaker from Baytown, Texas has filed a bill that would charge parents of public school students with a Class C misdemeanor and fine them for playing hooky from a scheduled parent-teacher conference.”
