If so we should probably stop teaching English lest we quash the spirit of potential writers / it might just be too risky to run the experiment and see what happens..

It’s also probably pretty explanatory of who I am to say that high school was one of the best things about my teen years, and a vastly better learning experience than I found at MIT.

On the other hand I think most “nerds” I’ve met either totally loved or totally hated school and the bimodal distribution of high school emotions and grades in my peers (either As or Cs-Fs) is probably the most damning measure of the educational institution itself.

Interesting. I went to a low-to-moderate income public school. Zero PhDs in the school, I believe. Compared to many schools it was a _nice_ place. But very few opportunities, very little stimulation. My intellectual and creative day began where school ended.

The requirement to teach at my school was a Master’s degree (in nearly anything) and I woke up most days feeling like a lucky penny - despite my parent’s income, my mom had talked them into letting me attend. Retrospectively it felt like 6 years of not wanting to waste a minute.

Also I should have slept more during those years but see above
