Hey all, I just signed up for an Advanced Placement (AP) English course at my PUBLIC high school for my senior year. The new teacher for that class has a summer reading assignment, which includes reading the Bible.

Now, the first time I heard this, I was appalled. I have spent nearly eleven years of my school life avoiding the Bible, and I am proud to have the rights that say no one can force religious studies on me.

But, I do not see any way around this reading assignment. I must read books from Genesis to Corinthians. Boy, I am really worried that something fishy is going on at my school, and that this new teacher is plotting something. I hope she doesn't first make us read the Bible, then convert people.

Her rationale for reading the Bible is that there are many allusions to the Bible from literature, and I think that is superb. I'm all for allusions, but reading the entire Bible? C'mon...

I don't know what to do, just the thought of reading the Bible makes me shudder. Help?

My friend is going through a situation in which a person was put into a position in the university which the school is saying he needs to approve dissertation but it is not stated in the graduate catalog and no student was given written documents about this change. This person is requesting to make changes towards my friends dissertation but in the catalog the dissertation is only supposed to be between the student, his committee, the dean, and the graduate school. The committee has signed off on his dissertation but this person refuses to sign finding anything he can to withhold him from finishing. What should he do?

The majority of this world uses elementary education. Not all schools call themselves secondary schools. Others will call themselves a senior high school. And another will call themselves a high school. Is secondary school like the neutral term for all of the names? Is there a reference for this? Secondary school in my dictionary only means a school coming after elementary school, comprising grades 7,8 or 9 through 12. Senior high schools don't come after an elementary school, so technically it's not a secondary school. But many senior high schools still call themselves a secondary school when technically they aren't one. Primary education is only used in the UK and some other countries so that means that the majority uses elementary education. I think that this category should be renamed to reflect the majority in this world.

In other words, it's not uncommon for someone to get a degree in one industry only to find out later that they're not suited for the jobs, changed their mind or chose a different profession. What percentage of college graduates actually work in the field in which they received their degree?

Can the student just be struggling in the regular classes go to the self-contained classes? I wouldn't want my child to fail all of his regular classes. I want my child to succeed. So if my child is struggling in the regular classes, can I ask the school to put him in a self-contained class? Will that change anything if he is in self-contained classes? Will he be classified even more than before since it's more restrictive?
