""I teach at a major university. I had to throw 6 out of 18 students out of one of my classes before it started this week. I'm lucky. I can throw them out.""


Now, I'll admit I wasn't very nice to the teachers in High school last year. I was a Senior and I did many typical Senior things. Like Spraying the fire extinguisher at people and having swivel chair races in the hallways and I could go on and on.


But College is Big Boy and Girl school. The fact that you had to throw out 6 students is just embarrassing. It's college not highschool, and your students should know they
are adults now!

Typical? 40 years ago, when I was your age, we never dreamed of misusing a piece of emergency equipment! That was in the same league with setting off a false fire alarm: it just wasn't done.

Besides, it would have resulted in a suspension.

High school IS "Big Boy and Girl" school. College is "Young Men and Women school."

Most high school seniors are LEGALLY ADULTS when they graduate, and should act like it. For many of the grads, it is the last time they will set foot in a class room.

For Poser's sake, I wish more would get a job, rather than waste their time and everyone's money on 'higher education' with a major in keggers, and minor in video gaming. He wouldn't be forced to toss so many out, and those wanting to learn would have an easier time doing so.

If you were indulging in such behavior as you describe, I can only shudder to imagine what the your Liberal classmates were doing!
