Should People Wear High Rank? By MJS - Fri, 13 Jul 2007 00:24:42 GMT
=========
Seeing that there is alot of talk regarding Jeff and the comments that he made, I thought I'd start this thread.
There seems to be alot of talk on the issue of rank. Questions of time in grade and people who were quick to slap on a 10th have come up.
Do you feel that people should refrain from wearing a 10th? Looking at a post by one of Mr. Bob Whites students, he states that Mr. White refuses to put on a 10th, this I imagine, to be out of respect for Mr. Parker.
Reading a post on the KN, someone made an interesting analogy. They stated, if someone was a 9th, and refused to wear a 10th out of respect for Parker, the highest they would ever go would be 9th. If students, out of respect for their teacher refused to put on a 9th, the highest they'd go would be 8th. This process would continue until everyone was just wearing a white belt.
Thoughts?
