EDUCATION WORLD PREMIERE HUMOR
Poet's Coroner
*********************************************************************

Heavy Is the Head that Wears the Crown
by Forrest Stone

If I could learn, well, EVERYTHING
It would make life a breeze
I'd get great, hulking scholarships
At all the big Ivies

I'd be renowned both far and wide
Whatever that might mean
I'd QUESTION terms like "far and wide"
If I knew everything

The thought of this exhausts me so -
Such knowledge! In such herds! -
I don't think I can study now
My next ten spelling words

Barber's top suggestions: Chips at lunch with mushy peas; vinegar with those chips, folks, not ketchup, even though we really do wish John Kerry had been elected … Let's see … Oh, yes. Look, let them drink beer at age 16. They're going to do it anyway!

Governor Calls for Internet Safety Training for Teachers
New Jersey Governor Jon S. Corzine has called for Internet safety training for teachers and has asked the state attorney general and education commissioner to begin the process this school year.

Education officials in Nevada have proposed giving bonus pay to teachers -- from kindergarten to college -- who undergo training to serve as armed reserve school police officers. Extra bonuses apply to teachers willing to be trained in the use of assault weapons. Former postal workers also included in program.
