Reading (For Dummies)

The Situation with High Schools

It's something we college and post-college folk probably don't think about much, especially since we didn't have to sit in post-Columbine high school. High Schools suck these days. I went to visit my mommy and fix her computer (giving her access to her NT network shares on her Mac, which her network administrator swore couldn't be done. I guess he never heard of Samba).

I had to sign in to the school to get past the main office, despite the fact that I am balding and bearded. I then walked through many corridors with those wonderful black-domed cameras.

It's not World Sousveillance Day but I'll work anyway

I like how people don't get it. We have a violence problem in high schools. Let's not figure out what the problem is, let's just make everyone feel safe by taking away all their rights. No big deal that constant surveillance has been shown to have very negative psychological effects.
