Should schools breathalyze children before school/ school events?

I remember when my high school threatened to handle underage drunkenness that occurred at various events (football games, homecoming) by breathalyzing the students before walking in the building.  At the time, we thought that was absurd and would never happen.  I did some observations at Mentor High last fall and noticed an announcement that students would be allowed into homecoming without submitting a breathalyzer test.  Personally, I think this is absurd, but the argument is that this will potentially lives.  1)   Does this really save any lives, and 2) assuming that it did save lives, is it worth taking away the trust of the students?

Should businesses advertise in school?

Is it worth poisoning the minds of the students in schools in order to make up insufficient funds that are needed in order to have a complete classroom?  Most would probably agree that kids are a vulnerable audience, and advertising products in the classroom, while beneficial for business, crosses a line of ethics not meant to be traversed.  Unfortunately, money is quite important especially in a bad economy, so what do you guys think?  (I'm redirecting my other blog onto this one to make things easier.)

1:  Aaron Steindler, Mentor, OH, asteindler13@jcu.edu
2:  "Aaron"
3:  I want to teach high school physics.
4:  I am a bit of a comedian, to say the least.
5:  I must know that there is no penalty of grade or embarrassment for disagreeing with the instructor/ majority
6:  I consider myself to be an independent learner who likes to learn in a less guided manner.  I like to explore different philosophical viewpoints and pick and choose an eclectic synthesis of thoughts.  I also do not want to learn something unless I see value in what I am learning.
7:  I have a great photographic memory, and can often remember where a passage was located on a certain part of a page in a book.  I usually retain images and their general locations within a book.  I am a bit kinesthetic, but I am predominantly visual.
8:  My best memories of being a student often occur outside of the classroom.  I will often spend several hours at a time surfing the internet, trying to understand complex philosophical or physical issues in modern society, from theology to high energy physics.  I was never obligated to understand this stuff, but I feel that I have bettered myself from my academic freelancing.
9:  Money.  I am not trying to become rich, but I cannot be too happy being told that the state cannot afford for me to make a reasonable salary, and pay back my student loans.  It concerns me that many students are permanently denied of a good education because the individuals in power do not properly allocate the necessary funds.  Also, I am very against standardized testing.
10:  DO:  explain the connection between learning/teaching and actual classroom experience  STUDY:  Connect content with praxis II questions with plt section,  BE:  intellectuals who have a holistic sense of what is truly good for education   AVOID:  memorization of inert, useless facts not relevant to the classroom.
