Give this kid a medal and a scholarship
May. 26th, 2009 02:00 pmIs it OK to run an illegal library from my locker at school?
This kid has in his locker 60-some of the books banned by the school, and loans them out to upperclassmen. The list includes Animal Farm, Mort, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Picture of Dorian Grey, and lots more works of great value.
This kid's an inspiration in any case, and the moreso given the ridiculous breadth of the books that some idiot has decided to ban. Heck, we were REQUIRED to read some of those books in high school.
Of course, he'll probably be suspended for it. I would hope that some library association gives him at the very least a very public pat on the back and a "hurrah!" if that happens.
