Quote:
PALM BEACH GARDENS � A quiz meant to teach high school students how innocent notions can become sexually charged as a person matures has landed a longtime William T. Dwyer High School teacher in hot water.

"We do feel that it was over the top," said Dwyer Principal Joseph Lee of the quiz given Monday by Frank Rozanski to his advanced placement psychology class.

Rozanski was disciplined but was still in the classroom teaching this week, Lee said.

Rozanski wrote 10 questions on the whiteboard, Lee said. The class was working on a lesson about social psychology and perceptions.

After watching the video, I couldn't help laughing at the uptight parents.

However, after seeing the quiz, I can see their point! Smile
And really, if you're going to give this kind of assignment for fun, you've got to be smart enough to collect them at the end of class. Idea

Rozanski sure is clever. The quiz is as subtle as a punch in the head.

You wouldn't happen to have another link, would you? This one gives me a "page not found" error.

12/13 correct. I missed #5, guessing that it was a flag (flags have poles, you pull the cord and tie it to put and keep a flag up, and it gets wet before you do because it's higher in the air; I guess the pole isn't technically "inside," but whatever).

The sexual aspect of the riddles was pretty lame, but the riddles themselves were a bit fun.

Damn, had I known you'd get 12, I'd've tried harder Exclamation

Five I got, but I said a pen for 12. That works, so I'm raising my score to 9/13.

Would you feel the same had you gotten 11 or 12?
