I know it's a simplistic POV, but if you can't subvert TOS, established policies and assumptions in an educational context for an educational purpose, then where can you?
Isn't it also at college people should be taught to be wary of Big Brother?
Yes - definitely it's the time and place to promote discussion and discourse about established policies and assumptions. That said, we should strongly consider that requiring students to break a TOS crosses a line that should be reserved for people doing it themselves with grounded knowledge and free will. The power of the lectern should not be used to require subversion on the part of the student. The students should have the option to investigate these questions themselves. And they should be encouraged to do so. I do not see these two things in opposition. Terrell PhD Student SILS at UNC-CH
