Um, #AcademicSky #EduSky copy paste this policy into a word doc and send to your bosses. Replace street fighter reference with your school brand. Tell them it's best practice from a tech think tank.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”
