Education Code Section 60042

[magid]

I'm reading parts of the California Education Code for work. Excerpts include guidelines for portraying men and women (equal time, not always in stereotypical roles, etc), ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and senior citizens. Other sections prohibit most uses of corporate logos, encourage teaching about ecology, also religious diversity, the dangers of substance abuse, and the role of entrepreneurs (!).

Each topic above has a separate section about it. However, the lawmakers in California saw fit in Section 60042 to group "Thrift, Fire Prevention, and Humane Treatment of Animals and People." Eh?
