A CTE teacher's blog about teaching, sports & entertainment marketing, life, and other assorted topics. A long, circuitous career path has now found me teaching Sports & Entertainment Marketing in North Carolina. I was in the Marines and the TV business prior to teaching--told ya it was circuitous! And yes, I do ramble!

Really, Glee, You're Going There?
I was grading papers while my wife was watching "Glee" on the DVR on Sunday night. I was only half paying attention to the show, but I stopped when I saw the scenes between the student and the teacher he had an affair with.
It's bad enough to depict that situation on TV, but it was even worse when two students discussed whether to tell administrators about this affair. Um, let me think--yes! Sadly, at the end of the show, there was some kind of justification to not tell administrators/law enforcement. Something about letting the opposing glee clubs compete each other.
In the age of Sandusky and Fine is the message we want to send to high school students one of continuing cover-ups of illegal activity.
