I still think they should be off the computer at school, using books. When I was doing debate, it was an “extracurricular activity,” and you were doing it outside school time with your own library and other resources. (rant OFF)

This is not to say that, if the school is too pathetic to have books, they should be allowed to limited computer access to a leftist perspective. They still should just have books.

I agree. But they should have REAL books. Unfortunately, the only books allowed into the public schools are as badly slanted as this internet program. And from what I have seen, even the Prep Schools have drifted that way.
