I tried to get the Chemistry book banned our sophomore year in high school. Figured if I did we would not have to take the final. But in all seriousness, it is a great part of our history to look back and see how we have progressed in acceptance of new and different ideas. Could not have been pleasant during the time of Winnie the Pooh banned books.

So much better a display and active execution of free speech than the bs going on in the NFL.
Well done Meg.
