Do you miss high school?
\n<\/i>Nah, I don’t really miss high school so much.  And when, just for a
\nsplit little minute, I do, the monthly Aggie Express Newsletter sets me right
\nagain.  For example, the February edition, hotly distilled to PDF, suggests
\nthat once again–much like in bygone days–the school system is infested with
\nname-calling, other excitables.  Whenever you’re ready, Judith Butler.   The feature,
\n
\n"Verbal Abuse–Slurs and Name-calling,"<\/a> basically reduces to "tend to your
\nfoul-mouthed kids!"  So in case you don’t have time or inclination to read
\nit, that pretty much sums it up: endlessly curbing intolerant slurs in small
\ntown middle Michigan.  In an effort to be more solution oriented, I was
\nspeculating about a connection to the school’s song (scales are in common with
\nNotre Dame<\/a>, fwiw).  Notice the ratio of fight<\/i> to all other words, except
\nand<\/i>, which pops up twice-6:1.  Pattern, see?<\/p>\n

Fight, fight for BCHS,
\nKeep up the spirit, we’ll always try,
\nThen our team will fight and win
\nand march on to victory.  Fight! Fight! Fight!<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
