Teacher Sells Ads On Tests
Tom Farber, a calculus teacher at Rancho Bernardo high school in San
Diego, has come up with a unique way of covering district cuts to his
supplies budget. He sells ads on his tests. "Tough times call for
tough actions," Tom says. The price of an ad on a Mr. Farber Calc test
is as follows: $10 for a quiz, $20 for a chapter test, and $30 for a
semester final. Most of the ads are messages from parents but about a
third of them come from local businesses. Principal Paul Robinson says
reaction has been "mixed," but adds, "It's not like, 'This test is
brought to you by McDonald's or Nike.'" I see his point. Being a local
business whore is much better than being a multinational conglomerate
whore.
