While substitute teaching at a High School today I scanned the walls of the classroom I was in, reading all of those educational "propaganda posters" that teachers put up. Some of them are little more than bad pop-philosophy cliches, while others are nice little nuggets of wisdom. But they almost always prove to be an interesting window into the personality and values of the teacher I'm subbing for.
In today's classroom, there was one poster I was tempted to rip down and take home to put on MY wall! It showed some awesome artwork of Barbara Gordon purposefully storming through a library with a forensics book in one hand. As she passes by a window we see that her reflection is that of Batgirl, symbolically cluing us in to her true identity. The bold caption reads, "Librarians are heroes every day!"
Extremely cool! How come *I* never had an English teacher like Ms. Bishop?
