HAARETZ NEWS - New York teacher suspended over Nazi simulation writing assignment, Apr 14, 2013
: "A high school English teacher in New York state who had students pretend to be Jew-hating Nazis in a writing assignment has been placed on leave. The teacher at Albany High School caused a storm of criticism after having students practice the art of persuasive writing by penning a letter to a fictitious Nazi government official arguing that "Jews are evil." District Superintendent Marguerite Vanden Wyngaard held a news conference Friday to apologize for the assignment. The Times Union newspaper reported on Saturday that the teacher was not in class on Friday and had been placed on leave by the school district."
