"Buy Your Own Classroom Supplies"Your classroom binder should be big, beefy,yellow maybe, or red, easy for spotting,smudged with something like chocolate, coffeesplashed across the pages and set in the rings.Your pens should be sunset colored, show thatyou mean business, even from your pocketor dry, chapped hands—oh, and don’t forgetthe bottle of sanitizer. It’ll sit fatlike a trophy at the edge of your desk.Your closet should hold four white button-upshirts, two pairs of heavy polyesterpants, black, creased, and a single ink-black clip-on-tie, bought at an army surplus store.Trust me, full length ties are not worth the risk.
