OPEN LETTER WI-FI IN SCHOOLS


OPEN LETTER WI-FI IN SCHOOLS (#3) 2012

May 2012.  At the request of some teachers I have updated the open letter I wrote in May 2009 about Wi-Fi in the school environment. Much has happened during the past 3 years making it even more urgent that a moratorium be placed on the deployment of Wi-Fi in schools; and that schools that currently have Wi-Fi consider reducing the microwave exposure as much as possible for part or the entire day and for part or the entire school by returning to the use of wired connections (ethernet or fiber optics) for internet access.

For those who would like more information about Wi-Fi in schools, here are some excellent websites:
