Seriously, while the no tolerance policies high schools some high schools are sporting these days kinda suck, there are things about high school today that (almost) make me wish I could do it again. Things like this high school in Canada that will now get their textbooks downloaded to their Sony e-readers. The e-readers (as do most of the dedicated readers) allow for notations so students can not only read but make notations.
Also, one reader has got to be so much lighter than carrying six or seven textbooks. Although, it does make it harder to forget your books. (Or, well, easier too.)
Hat tip to Dear Author for the link.
ETA the word policies.
