Who Evaluates the Evaluators?

This week at the Pretty Good International School in exotic Fastvakia, we are being visited by a "team" of evaluators.

They are going to decide if the school deserves accreditation.

I've had a few conversations with the Accreditation Team today.

One individual commented on the fact that I am not wearing a tie.
Hmmm, I wonder what that has to do with education. Do students learn more from bona fide AUTHORITY figures? And what do they learn?

Among the arguments against ties are that they are unnecessary and that we live in an age where a responsible individual should be aware of resource scarcity. (See, e.g., Diamond's new book, Collapse. There are places where airconditioning is mandatory in order to make it comfortable for people wearing ties. And airconditioning itself is both unhealty and harmful to the environment.

But, what I really wanted to say was, "Our students are sufficiently class conscious without any such costume..."

And, btw, who does evaluate the evaluators?
