Tipping the scales of sameness

Thank you Cecelia!

But she got right back up again...

This is the final count for the year, as the Art Institute who scheduled for Friday, ended up canceling. 

My sign reflects the scheduled calendar visits.  

 So each time a recruiter is scheduled - I take time from my work to drive 7 miles back to the school to monitor/observe the visit.  Then 7 miles back to work.

I drove to the school 18 times this year for scheduled military visits.

Did the military actually 
show up 19 times?   

No.

Did I? 

I certainly tried, 
cause it was on the CALENDAR...

Military recruiters actually showed up on campus 9 times this year.

The college number, is probably more like, 1 than 3, as I am pretty sure that 2 of the college recruiters did not have access to all the 9-12th grade students in the same manner that military recruiters had.

The law states that  "Same Access" is allowed to military recruiters, as the school provides to colleges, etc.

Just like on Sesame Street,  "One of these things is not like the other..."
