I can say, "See, even the Iowegians are using it." We Minnesotans hate to be outdone by Iowa. Great, I’ll use this as part of my campaign to get the district to unblock Twitter.

Is a teacher anyone who educates? Or is a teacher someone who is employed as a classroom teacher at a school district? Personally, when I make connections with "teachers", I am looking for someone who is currently gaining classroom experience. I understand that there are many different roles in education, I just don't want to dilute the role of "teacher." I'm not looking to be a divider, but it seems like the point of these Twibes would be to know who you're making contact with. Scott,
