School Monitors Student Blogs

Tuesday, May 30, 2006

A school district in Illinois is going to monitor students’ blogs and MySpace profiles for "illegal and inappropriate behavior." What do you think?

Todd Grubman,
Intern
"Yay! Now they definitely won't have enough time to monitor the boiler-room and under the gymnasium bleachers."

Lisa Hruska,
Housewife
"Oh, so if I cruise MySpace looking for information on children, I'm a pervert, but if a school district does it, they're being responsible."

Holden Rasche,
Customs Officer
"Finally we can move on to the next item on the district's agenda: The spectacular lack of learning going on in the classroom."
