What College Students Know About 9/11

When we say, "Never forget," that kind of falls off a cliff after so many years. Students who are in college now are typically between 18 and 24 years of age. The 9/11 attack was almost 25 years ago, so they don't remember it first hand. But you'd think their parents would have talked about it least once or twice since then. Schools, not so much. My history classes all ended with World War II, because we ran out of time in the school year. I wonder if today's high school students even learn anything about Vietnam. If you rely on schools to teach children everything they need to know, you are shortchanging your children. Most of all, they need to know the importance of reading about what schools don't cover adequately, for the rest of their lives.

Ridiculous School Rules Sparked by One Incident

If a school suddenly imposes a ridiculous rule that no one understands, you can assume that someone caused a problem, and they can't figure out a better way to deal with it. When I was in high school, they cut our lunch break from a half hour to 20 minutes. Then the next year it was cut to 15 minutes. That was serious for a school that didn't have a cafeteria. Both cuts came after someone was busted for drugs, and all of us suffered. 

I'm sure that's happened throughout the history of public schools, but in the age of the internet, such incidences can make the local news and then go viral globally. You probably didn't hear about each of these instances, but Chill Dude Explains did the research. Here are ten times that one prankster, or one group of pranksters, left their legacy for the classes that followed them. Sometimes these new rules spread to schools statewide or even nationwide.

Some Answers from a 10th Grade English Exam

Okay, this will read funny to a native English speaker, but you need to know this is from an English exam in a German school. Look carefully, and you will find sparks of genius here. Handshoes is a direct translation of handschuhe, which is German for gloves. Waterkrank probably means seasickness. Altogether it highlights the difficulty of learning a new form of grammar. They certainly know English better than I know German! Commenters pointed out they've seen worse from native English speakers. (via reddit) 

School Parking Permits

It's another case of giving more to those who already have. If you have to skip studying to make it to your fast food job on time, be prepared to work some extra hours for a parking permit, too. (via Buzzfeed)
