I can see how administrators might think that a teacher using a personal
laptop might be doing personal work on school time, but I'm not sure how
this would present virus and liability concerns. I don't understand
everything about wireless networking, though, by any means! Now I'M
curious about this because the same situation could exist here in the
public library. Any thoughts?

Thanks to all who responded to my request for information about tech
policies prohibiting the use of personal laptops by teachers at
school. If anyone else is interested, the primary reasons such a
policy might exist are viruses and liability concerns. My district
does not have a policy in place, and I was just curious.
