[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 280959, member: 831"] The elementary school I work at sells yearbooks. They have since Daughter went here. I don't know about further back. I do remember one teacher (thank goodness she's not here anymore) wouldn't allow her students to sign or even LOOK at their yearbooks during class. I can certainly understand not wanting instructional time used for that. However, the last day all the other classes on her grade level were setting a bit of time aside so students could sign yearbooks. She threaten to confiscate any yearbook caught open. What a you-know-what (and I almost NEVER use that word)! As far a acronyms go, I don't think there is anyway to effectively regulate that without expending a tremendous amount of energy. I can just hear the announcement: "Attention students! The teachers and administration will now inspect all yearbooks for acronyms. It is our goal to keep all yearbooks unfettered with acronyms. Anyone caught with an acronym in their yearbook [I][U]will spend a night in the box*!"[/U][/I] *I just couldn't resist the reference to the movie Cool Hand Luke. Honestly, I hope it backfires.
