The sad state of education…in 1994.

Crankyprof doing what she does best.

(Snopes.com says it’s undetermined, but my non-professional opinion based on sight alone, without analysis? Is that it’s fake. But having had teachers who’ve done this very thing [Fall '07 sucked, y'all], I still think her rant is valid, and worth a read.)

I had similar experiences with several teachers. Even if this particular example proves to be false, it still happens far too often.

What was that about fake but true? :)

wouldn’t surprise me. in high school i got tossed out of physics class when we were discussing Einsteinian relativity… i kept asking how Hawking’s theories correlated to Einstein’s… finally the teacher told me that “we are not discussing theoretical physics”… to which i replied “then why are we discussing Eisenstein’s THEORY or relativity?”

yup… got thrown out of class for that one.
