I'm not sure what's more pathetic, that they think 18 electronic readers can adequately serve the students needs to take home reading material, or that the <50 books on loan when they checked means they may be right. Though if they only checked what was out at the time, and if they checked at the wrong part of spring, that might be so unusual. It's an interesting correlation between the 18 books that weren't kiddie lit and the 18 readers they've ordered though.
My main question is what kind of prep school assigns so few research paper the students can get away with that. I can't wait to hear the reaction from my friend who teaches at a Catholic school and regularly bemoans his students inability to properly cite a bibliography.

I think this may mark the first time you and I have completely agreed on a subject.

I think they should have done both.

I thought about making a post, but it would be a poor version of this one. I agree completely. *NM*

I'd be shocked, except that I'm not sure why a HS needs a library in the first place.

Most high schools have libraries.

I'm not surprised, I've seen enough American movies and TV shows to realize that.

I think this is probably a good decision.

Yes. No one writing directly from wikipedia should BE in college.

They still have physical classrooms, and they're whining about "outdated technology"? Pfft. *NM*

Yeah, you can actually. Have you tried curling up with an eBook reader?

Just because you're unnaturally attuned to "new" things doesn't mean everyone is.

I agree, but students going to a prep school probably don't have financial problems. *NM*

You're telling the wrong person; he has a form he wants them to observe.
