School Admins Demand Access to Students' Cellphones
Reverberant writes "School administrators in Framingham MA have implemented a policy allowing them to not only confiscate cell phones, but also to search through students' cell phone data as part of their anti drug/violence efforts. Students claim that the policy is an invasion of their privacy."
That is the most malicious thing I have ever heard.
Well, maybe not, but you are still a jackass. I don't see how you presume to have the right to browse through something so personal, much of which has no relationship to the school and especially your classroom. That is okay though. Ultimately, these kids are smarter than you. Not only can you no longer hear their phones ring, but soon all of the information will be password protected.

Then the administration should rightly take away your phone if it's on and/or visible during school hours and explain to your parents why not doing that is a stupid and selfish idea.
Any school with cellular service will have a phone in the office that can be used for your parents to send you a message during school hours. If you *must* call your parents, get permission from your teacher to go to the office and use the phone.
You don't *need* a gods-damned noisemaker.

What is wrong with mandatory drug testing?
Teaching for tests is better than not teaching, and, frankly, arts and music aren't very useful.
Stupidity is like nuclear power, it can be used for good or evil. And you don't want to get any on you.
So, I'm trolling if you disagree? Wonderful.
