House Bill 525

House bill 525 is an expansion on the bill of rights act, which basically was set to protect minds from teachers who want to influence teachers. I agree with the original intent, but what this bill eventually does is stop all politicol disussion with in the class room.

They use the term "immature minds" with in the bill. And there was a proponent of the bill, an MSU professor in fact, that claimed freshman minds as immature as well easily impressionable, and well for a lesser word, gullable. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I am quite insulted by that. We're in college now, we go shopping on our own, cook our food, do our own laundry, i think we can select our political candidate.

This bill had alot of influence from actual testimony of kids reporting that teachers, mostly liberal extremists, who would lower grades of students who had conserative views, and in montana non the less. But i think students will notice the fact that views are being forced upon them, and that they do not really buy in to them.

Never the less, discussion in classrooms of politics and current events is important to develop interest and appreation of that world. They claim this bill for "Higher education," but this kind of discussion is important to learning, and sans-discussion would not higher our education. And if there are those who wish to use the power of the grade to make students eyes open to their liberal rediculous hippie non-sense, well all it takes is for a student to report that teacher to the administration.
