Treece emailed me this morning with a link to this story.

It got my dander up, so I blogged about it. I've created a Digg for the blog post.

You'd think higher education would be up on things like, oh, IDK, maybe technology and the law? Glad I don't go there, because the way I look at it, College is a consumer paid based service. So if I'm paying tutition and I'm an adult and it's not against the law, I doing it!

Commented; awaiting moderation.

Is this a University, a center of higher education? How about doing COMPLETE research on E Cigarettes rather than parroting the tired old lie from the FDA News Release? As a college graduate myself, I know no first year professor would accept such shoddy, unbalanced, and lazy work. Try again, here’s some links to get you rolling:
