No, sorry if I wasn't clear--I asked my colleagues if I was reading too much in to "Often in schools we see that students are capable of so much more. How do you motivate a child to reach his full potential?"
This was before the post you're talking about.

This Week's Homework: Sticking it to the Man
Please know I am writing this with a smile.
This has gone way too far. We all care tremendously about education and ALL students. We are arguing about whether or not "his" should be seen as gender specific or universal. That is not my call.
I have no idea who to lobby in order to make "they" and "their" officially recognized as grammatically correct but if you find out and are able to argue our case to them, I will back you up 100%. For now, let's not get hung up on one of the many very weird things about the English language.
After we win the "their/they/them" battle, I would love to find out how the heck the "L" in "colonel" can make an "r" sound.
