Stereotypes in the classroom are a bigger problem today because the current status of many high schools and middle schools. Where the students are entitled to make fun the students because they belong in a certain group and use technology such as myspace, facebook, and texting with they cell phone. It is hard to be teen and have the consent pressure of not fitting in at the same time but have someone post something on they blog or myspace page or make a myspace devoted to one in order to promote this ideal of stereotypes and cliques further.
This goes further in the real world beyond the high school years and college years. This can with you for the rest of your life.

I agree that high school can be hard for students who are doomed "different" than others. I think that technology helps the potential bullies keep up the good work. I also believe that students need to understand that this behavior is not cool, and it is very hurtful. I believe that students need to be aware of stereotypes to become more accepting of others.
