    Teacher Utilikilt Experiment at High School

    Seems a high school tried putting their TEACHERS in Utilikilts to see if their interest and curiosity would inspire better test scores. Read all about it here:

    Certainly shows a different attitude than the Warmack/McClard incident, doesn't it?

    Thanks for the link

    Thanks for the link, I sent it to my father (a teacher for 22 years), I am hoping the story will inspire him to get a UK (and one for me too) :-)

    I can see it now. It starts with the teachers, then on to professors and doctors and lawyers and politicians and soon everyone will be wearing the kilt and they'll have to change the name of the forum to "V marks the crotch" because we'll have no need to continue our dicussions.

    Two comments:

    1. Haven't I seen this before? It, or something like it, was done several years ago. Are we sure this isn't a case of recycling?

    2. How in the world did some of those kids make it to High School when they are patently illiterate?

    You are correct. This has been around for some time.

    What was wrong with me answering the question?
