1 - Tenure just got thrown out.
2 - No libraries.
3 - Fire Brigade method of staffing.
4 - Big Brother comes to the classroom. Not mentioned was the additional staffing to watch monitors and "disciplinary enforcers" needed to remove poorly behaving students and watch them in the separate room.
Maybe I'm just ignorant but 3 on its own doesn't seem that bad. Granted they should be accompanying that by hiring more teachers and increasing security for tenure qnd other tactics to better address staffing.
