This might be my fault. I used to teach high-school Civics at a school in suburban Minneapolis, and our school had a policy of no headphones in class. I told my kids that I didn’t have a problem listening to their CDs during tests, just “don’t get any ideas and burn your notes onto a disc or anything!” A few month later, at the end of the school year, the principal came on the announcements during finals week warning teachers not to let kids wear headphones during their tests for exactly that reason!

That was in 2003. I guess I was a visionary!
