"These are memories that they're going to have for the rest of their lives, and we want to make sure they're appropriate."

Yes, please, only memories that are deemed "appropriate."

Voluntary turn in?

Then don't.

Simple.

“These are memories that they’re going to have for the rest of their lives, and we want to make sure they’re appropriate.”

What a revealing comment. The ‘memories’ were made when the page was read. How, exactly, do these administrators propose to change what the kids remember? But leave it to a high school administrator to suggest something that sounds a lot like brainwashing. It’s almost what the lawyers call ‘an admission against interest’...

I'm torn on this.

On the one hand, I do believe the public schools have generally gotten way too PC.

On the other hand, how would you feel if you were a freshman in this school, opened the year book and saw a comment that said, "I remember Genoa. He was that fat, stinky guy with the pizza face. Man, what a slob. Everyone hated him."

Without knowing what the comment actually was, I'm hard pressed to say whether the school is doing the right thing or not.
