When I went to college I was all about having a good time and not once (until my last semester) did I really plan about or think to the future. But I also didn't post my life online. Sometimes that funny moment needs to stay within the group it happened with. Some jobs/careers have requirements that extend outside of your work hours. Educators need to really evaluate each social situation they involve themselves. I'm not saying they can't attend a party, I'm not saying they can't have a drink socially or in public. However, they do need to be careful about "glamorizing" such events. Whether they like it or not many times educators are considered role models. They have certain responsibilities to the children they are trusted with and to the public. I see this as a serious lack of judgement on the woman's behalf. I also see this as a serious abuse of the college's authority. The better resolution would have been to have the woman take an ethics class and/or counsuling to discuss why the page/picture/caption was a really bad idea. I don't think she should be kept from teaching, but it sounds like she does need to grow up a little more.
I work in K-12 and my wife is a teacher. After assisting her in grading math exams, where the students were not allowed calculators, most of the students failed. The next week she gave a similiar exam and allowed calculators and surprisingly enough the same percentage that failed the week before passed this exam. During parent/teacher conferences many parents were upset that the students were not allowed to use calculators, but they are only memorizing what the symbols and numbers are, they really have no comprehension of what they mean.
This whole idea of covering topics and material just to pass some state exam so that the school can keep their funding is a waste of time.
The same goes for technology, some of the school districts in my area have computers and technology just to say they have them. They are rarely used or are only used as a "reward".
As much as my livelyhood depends on technology in schools, I'd rather they got back to basics and be out of a job than to keep seeing these students fumbling along.
Will there be ratings on these broadcasts??

As a sidenote, stock in Take-Two Entertainment dropped by almost five percent at close of market today, on the news that even Gamestop is dumping the now AO-rated GTA title.
even though the game has already seen it's peak as far as sales are concerned, when it comes to pop-culture and console gaming is there any such thing as bad press?
We use Polycom equipment and it works quite well. It is capable of performing at multiple speeds depending on your bandwidth availability.
We have also used other equipment from High Vision Tech (formerly Miranda), but my experience with that is using MPEG-3 video.
As for displaying documents and computer images, a smartboard + video projector works quite well and there is also a device called an ELMO which works like an overhead projector but without using overhead slides (you can use documents, books, i.e. solid paper).
There is also another device that we've used called the V-Brick.
Maybe it depends on the area you live in or where you want to work, but to be honest I'm not sure I could recommend to someone entering college to study computer science.
Until the corporations stop outsourcing I don't see the market getting any better.
If you outsource all the entry level or maintenance jobs, where do you train people so that they are able to deal with the complexities of the job?
Everyone wants to hire the person with 3+ years experience, that's not going to help the market either.
Okay so now that there is precedence I suppose that whitehouse.com is making a parody of whitehouse.gov just so it can mislead the public and get a couple thousand extra hits a day.

As the other posted commented Witness tampering is a charge.
I'm also guessing impersonating a federal officer could be a charge.

today all administration is at a team building seminar.
I'm wondering if this was our present
Some can be entertaining, some border the ridiculous.
Overall I see many blogs as a person's soapbox so they can try and have two things:
Their 15 minutes
The ability to use their site as a conversation piece.
The next time I read/use blogs will be if I decide work on a degree that entails some type of social engineering.

This sure has been happening quite often lately.
Guess when there isn't any news, it's okay to spice it up and adlib, there's nothing wrong with that.
