Having ID cards = good. I have no problem with that and we're supposed to have them at Concordia all the time although they're rarely (if at all) checked.

Putting in a tracking system... um... way to showcase the concept of the "land of the free", Brittan.

Sounds more like a concentration camp than a school. I mean, why tracking devices!? It defeats the purpose of liberty and is wrong beyond all belief.

I got really worried when I saw the bathroom checking thing.

For God's sake, how is "Mary Smith went to the bathroom for 6 minutes during 3rd period" going to be relevant in the grand scheme of things?

Actually, we had a drug user at our school not that long ago. He smoked hash and such things so he got kicked out.

Bathroom checking. This just went too far.

The bathroom is a common place to take drugs on, however there is alot of other ways to find out if someone take drugs.

Besides, sure you can find if someone masterbaute on the school toilets or have problems with their stomaches but uhh... just no.

Why do I see more and more things like this in the US, but nothing like that in Sweden?

I don't have much to say that hasn't already been said...I would post something about these tracking systems being a lawsuit waiting to happen, but that's just too obvious.

anything infringing rights is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Anyways, it is interesting to see where this is going to go. With any use of new technology, there is going to be problems. It is just a matter of how the general public uses it.

As for RFIDing students, a real test is an urban environment--having RFID in a city that small is almost useless because everyone in the town knows everyone else...

At my school the only thing our ID cards are used for is checking out library books.

Agreed. Did you mean to say 'censor' instead of 'sensor'?

Because nobody cares about Sweden. Seriously though, like it's so hard to tell if someone's been doing drugs in the bathroom? And forget masturbating, that has to be one of the worst possible places to do it. Most of them at my school don't even have locks on the doors, and kids like to come in and kick them all open every 2 minutes or so.

My school have proper locks, I trust them enough to uhh...

Well, we have laws that really stops like this. We have stricter privacy laws than US. Even too strict, your not allowed to upload photos on the net if it includes someone else. At least not without permission, at least that stops that naked photo of you legalwise... but when was Internet legal in whole?

Privacy and US... uhh... Echelon anyone?

ID cards are used here for library purposes mainly... money can also be put on them (for food or printing purposes) and they're supposed to be shown to board the shuttle bus that goes between the downtown/Loyola campuses. It's just that nobody ever bothers to.

(And we have a huge number of bathrooms so... They all have locks thankfully.)
