Here’s an email exchange with a friend in response to my post last night about zero-tolerance policies in schools:
Friend: “Zero tolerance” is right up there with “everything is on the table” in terms of laziness in terms of making policy.
Me: And “across the board cuts.” Hey, this is fun! We should make a list of the top ten lazy policy slogans.
Friend: I’ve always liked “doing nothing is not an option.”
But that’s only four, and a top ten list needs ten. Help us fill out our list in comments.
