@myocean: Yeah, my older brother went there back in the mid 80s. I went to the middle school on Base, and when it was time to move up, my folks coughed up & sent me to a Catholic High School. Meade has a lonnnnnng reputation as being pretty sub-par. Just because it shares real estate with NSA doesn't make it an institution you'd moe closer to so your kids could go there.

"Islamic jihadism, nuclear arms, cyber-crime, domestic militias and the like."

Are the domestic militias considered good or bad? Considering its included in THAT list, probably not good.

Meade High School is located on Fort Meade, which is the home to the National Security Agency. Some colleges now have degrees in the field of Homeland Security. So some of these "morons" will at least have a college education.

That's probably an interesting program. I'm a little concerned about the implications about the importance of a mere high school education for our security people, however.

"There’s a lot of homeland security issues in ‘Romeo and Juliet,’ " said Bill Sheppard, the program coordinator. "Like, how do you deal with infiltration in your own family?"

Well, how about poisoning the lovers?
