The economics teacher requires everyone to watch The Newshour and explains, "You may be bored to death watching PBS, but it's the real story and it will always be there because they don't sell commercials."
And the history teacher is practically giddy about next week's debate on who really caused World War I.
Passionate and funky people.
Fortunate kids. They have no idea.
