Track the students but don’t protect them

October 7, 2007

I read an article about fingerprinting kids in school and I am immediately thinking about privacy issues. The article mentions that the data is only used in house for things like the cafeteria. If it weren’t abused it would actually be a good idea (I personally would not trust the Department of Education, but I’m kind of paranoid). What really gets me here is that these schools want to spend money on biometric technology while remaining lacks on school security.

Targeted school violence from elementary to college has double every decade since the 1980s.
