According to published reports, the school board gave final approval Wednesday to an updated homework policy that seeks to lighten the load on overworked kids.

The new Broward policy calls on teachers, especially in middle and high school, to assign academically challenging work while also being considerate about not assigning too much homework.
Fucking ridiculous.

I remember when I was in college (4 year, not junior college where I started and then transferred) we had to take 18 fucking credit hours, and the profs. told us that the college encouraged more homework to "keep us busy and out of trouble".
