I am embarrassed to acknowlege that I attend the same school as these ignorant yokels.

Is it possible to pre-emptively ban someone from your journal?

My wife finished her Masters at UW, and she said that she heard from many different instructors that the past two years' crops of freshmen have been particularly stupid. One professor even said that she had a student state that it was "stupid" and "pointless" to talk about etymology in an English course, because the Tower of Babel explains everything people need to know about language. I'm serious. I couldn't even make that up if I wanted to.

Contagious stupidity

Of course we in Georgia have the national embarrassment of having the head of our public schools decide to remove the word "evolution" from the curriculum. She has finally backed down, but -- really! Stupidity is alive and well, I'm afraid.
