A friend just got an email from his corporate boss sating that about 4000 people were going to be laid off at facilities around the US --almost 20% of the staff. Most layoffs would be by random choice, he said, so no one laid off should take it as a criticism!!!!! They need to "adjust" expenses to improve a third quarter projection. And laid-off staff would be asked to train "permanent temps" in order not to harm production. Some here will say how wonderful this is, but other ...

From Disturbed High Schooler to College Killer Mr. Cho didn't need to talk to succeed academically at Westfield. Diagnosed with "selective mutism," or anxiety-related refusal to speak, he was placed in special education under the "emotional disturbance" classification. As a result, he was largely excused from making oral presentations and answering teachers' questions in class; oral participation was de-emphasized in his grading. Aided by such "accommodations," or efforts to compensate for his disability, he achieved A's and B's in regular and Advanced Placement courses and was admitted to Virginia Tech.
When the students move on to college, schools are rarely warned, students get help with special needs only if they seek it, and psychological problems can flare up, sometimes with devastating consequences. At Virginia Tech, because federal law shields students' mental-health histories, administrators and teachers didn't know about Mr. Cho's earlier troubles. Eventually, his strange behavior set off alarm bells and he was ordered to seek counseling by a judge, but there's no indication he complied.

More incentives for students to complete third language programmes SINGAPORE: More carrots are in place for students to complete the Malay or Chinese Special Programmes, which are four-year courses for the study of a third language, over and above one's mother tongue. The Malay Special Programme, introduced in 1986, is particularly important for non-Malays as Singapore makes an effort to engage its Southeast Asian neighbours. However, statistics have shown that in the last four years, about 80 percent of the Secondary One students who signed up for the Malay Special Programme quit before they reached Secondary Four.
