I feel that the depiction of the student in the third panel is racist, as he is of a yellow complexion. It is obvious that you are trying to subtly insinuate that he is an Asian, which we find truly offensive and vulgar. It's very interesting that the owl in the window is a representation of the Japanese internment in the Western United States. Although this piece is racist in almost every aspect, I do appreciate the satirical message that is hidden in the dialogue between the two ambiguously dressed teachers. It seems that the lack of a second arm in either teacher represents their inability to change the downward movement of the American educational system. Well done.
