Michael White made another first-hour announcement today. However, he wisely chose not to make the exact same announcement second-hour. Because that'd be really, really obnoxious.
Anyway, the point of it was that you can't leave class early, or you will be "gathered up" (like livestock! Hall monitors now carry cattle prods) and sent to his office, and asked to go home. I kind of doubt people are "asked" to go home. I don't think they really have any say in it or any appeal process. But I digress. What bothered me was that he referenced a "system." If you leave class early, you mess with the "system." Sounds kind of sinister to me, as if he has some secret plan and us being in the hallways during class somehow messes everything up.
Anyway, yeah, that's your punishment for leaving early. Being sent home early. Seems like they just want to make it seem like they're still in control. . .
I also wonder about parents of children who can't walk home and who can't drive. If I was a parent and I received a phone call from my child telling me I had to leave my job and pick them up because they were in the hallway during class, there would be a problem.
Respect, respect, respect. . .

White is watching everyone on the camera's now. They are up and running. I haven't heard an announcement letting students know they are on camera and there is nothing posted saying the building is using the camera's already. I always thought something had to be posted at entryways when a building is using a camera, like you see on businesses who have camera's. You need to find out if there has to be signs on doors saying camera's are in use. I heard today the camera's go off at midnight.
