Hubbard Teachings in Public Classrooms

As the Los Angeles Board of Education grapples with whether to approve
a new charter school that would feature the teaching methods of L. Ron
Hubbard, the late founder of the Church of Scientology, a handful of
district teachers say they have been using those techniques for years
and keep copies of Hubbard's works in their classrooms.
The controversy over the use of Hubbard's methodsknown as Applied
Scholasticshas prompted district officials to undertake a review of
policies on religion in public schools and to seek an opinion from the
state Department of Education on the legality of using the materials.

Jonestown Filmmakers Missing the Mark
July 27, 2007, Pat Lynch, Huffington Post
For me, the story began May 2, 1978. My crew and I were filming the
Synanon cult's property from a deserted public road in Marshall,
California, when armed men, women and children with shaved heads held
us captive for three hours. The story flashed across the AP wire,
phoned in by Pulitzer Prize winner Dave Mitchell, owner of the Point
Reyes Light weekly. My employer, NBC News, ignored the story. I didn't
understand why, but it was a foreshadowing of what would happen when my
far more dangerous story about Peoples Temple was ready for air in
October, 1978.
