Stephen,

    Hi...and it's called CYA. The school is responsible for any
    injuries, and some schools (and school boards of regents) decide it's
    better to tell them no than teach them how. After having a class on
    woodworking in my college days, I'd have to say it would be scary.
    Some of those kids (mostly guys, mostly just out of school) were
    doing pretty dangerous things. 

    The other aspect is that some schools don't have the funding to
    cover the recommended minimums to prevent hazards from harming
    people. My husband's class isn't so strict, though they were masks
    and clean up after themselves, and we appreciate it. 

    My personal belief is that everyone ought to know what the hazards
    are, what the risks and benefits are, then choose for themselves. For
    example, we don't use a heated pickle unless we're using lemon juice
    because we don't have the facilities here to do so safely (and I'm
    very allergic to the weirdest things, and so is our son.) 

Kim
