Recorded History

February 2nd, 2007 · 1 Comment

Via To the People comes the story of New Jersey’s Kearny High School, which became a center of controversy when a student taped history teacher David Paszkiewicz using class time to heap scorn on evolution and admonishing students to embrace Jesus or risk hellfire. School administrators were quick to respond… by banning the surreptitious recording of classes. So I finally get to say it: If they’ve got nothing to hide, what are they afraid of? What possible purpose could such a restriction have other than to allow the school to deceive parents and the public about what’s being said in their own classrooms?
