The board of Community High School District 128 voted unanimously on Monday to require that all students participating in extracurricular activities sign a pledge agreeing that evidence of "illegal or inappropriate" behavior posted on the Internet could be grounds for disciplinary action.

Associate Superintendent Prentiss Lea rebuffed that criticism. "The concept that searching a blog site is an invasion of privacy is almost an oxymoron," he said. "It is called the World Wide Web."

Its not the reading of the blogs that is an invasion of privacy, its the extension of your responsibility for keeping an orderly learning environment into areas of students lives which have nothing to do with their education that is an invasion of privacy. What a fucking moron.

Libertyville seems to produce a lot of people who are really pissed off at the world. I wonder why...
