"Bring Back the Backpacks!"

In my line of work, I spend a lot of time reminiscing about the good ol' high school days. Last night I told some pals the story of one of my favorite RHS moments: Our student-led protest (thank you Megan and Jaime) when we walked out of class and stormed the streets of Ripon demanding the return of backpack usage in the classroom. Freedom of speech at its finest.

Ha! Burns aside, I may have never felt so awesome as on that day. I'm sad that my glory years occurred in the 54971...

Also, what the eff?? I can't believe they took away our backpacks!! Effing fascists.
