    all this bullshit about taking their phones away…they have to wake up at 7am for school and be there all day, they can’t even have one bit of joy? they can’t do banter during class or record a lecture or look stuff up? why are we acting like school has to be strict because it has to seem strict

      The older I get the more I think school and college are the way they are for aesthetics more than effective education. And having gone back to college after earning a flight instructor certificate has convinced me at least some professors haven’t so much as looked up the word “learn” in a dictionary.
