Credentials?

[asterroc]

WTF?! What were this person's credentials? A substitute teacher in a high school bio class had students pricking their fingers to take a blood sample, and then pass the needle on to someone else! If this isn't a good reason to require all teachers to have degrees in their subjects, including substitutes, I don't know what is. I don't even get why they'd let a sub run a lab anyway. STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!

2 - the same reason those authority psychology experiments (subject ordered to shock a person) were so ... shocking. everyone's used to obeying authority, even when they know better. people in positions of power HAVE to use that power responsibly. it's really damned hard for us to do anything about it if they don't.
