Suspended for doodling

This is a gun?

This is one small piece of evidence to back up my claim that education departments in all colleges and universities in the United States should be immediately eliminated and all education degrees should be summarily declared null and void*.

The idea that there is a formal need for training in pedagogy has already been thoroughly and permanently disposed of. It's just that, like the absence of WMDs, not everyone knows it yet.

A man who knows a subject thoroughly, a man so soaked in it that he eats it, sleeps it and dreams it—this man can always teach it with success, no matter how little he knows of technical pedagogy.

-- H. L. Mencken

* Those currently with education degrees should be allowed to retain credit for their non-education courses they have taken, and allowed to then obtain legitimate degrees by fulling in the holes created in their transcripts by this belated but desperately needed correction to our public education system. Admittedly there is no ability to wipe the tainting of some of their minds accomplished by "professional education", and communist-like "re-education" would probably make things worse if that is possible to imagine.
