Reminds me of a book ... (Score 1)

I read a book in middle school called The Wave, ironically enough. It described a school in which one of the teachers did almost exactly what WAVE is proposing, set up a system of "guidelines," and ended up turning the whole school into a Fascist state before he shocked the students into recognition of what they had become. It's actually based on an actual incident, too. This is a 6th grade level book, I don't think it takes a geek to understand what's wrong with this system.
