Civil Disobedience
Kansas City Star columnist Mike Hendricks is calling for a little civil disobedience after the Kansas State Board of Education writes pseudoscience into the standards:
"... what would happen if science teachers stood up to the anti-intellectual politicians on the state board? What if local school administrators and school boards instructed teachers to ignore the central authority in Topeka?
"I mean, to flat out blow them off.
"Answer: They’d likely get away with it."
