dsumusicman A good teacher is someone who is there for the students and wants to make sure the student succeeds to the best of his/her ability. I think that teachers need to feel an ownership over the knowledge that a student has.

dsumusicman I think this is the dumbest idea i have heard. Do we want another terrorist attack to happen and the pilots not being able to do anything about it? Come on think a little more about this idea.
