and again...

Which is worse, ripping the pages out of a book but still providing it to students, or removing it from the curriculum altogether?

(The latest is about Sherman Alexie's Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian.)

  1. It is never acceptable to tear pages out of book--and it is frightening to contemplate what is really being taught when a student is presented with a book that has pages torn out in school. The only acceptable way to negotiate the impulse is to consider teaching an excerpt from the book.
