Don't like "intelligent design?" Better quit your job.

You don't want your kids to go to school in Texas:

AUSTIN (AP) — The state's director of science curriculum said she resigned this month under pressure from officials who felt she gave the appearance of criticizing the instruction of intelligent design.

The Texas Education Agency put Chris Comer on 30 days paid administrative leave in late October, resulting in what she described as a forced resignation.

A little bit like just in time inventory policies:

Next year, the State Board of Education begins a review of the state science curriculum, which will set standards for classroom instruction and textbook selection.

If I were still on a college admissions committee, I think I would reject any kid coming out of a Texas school.
