Maybe the problem with education is teachers teaching speculation and conspiracy theories instead of their actual subjects

I thought it was a great program. They were really smart to follow a couple of students to get that personal emotional involvment to keep the viewed engaged. The minor errors (regional names, Wildstang's new address) aren't a big deal at all in the grand scheme of things.
