CBE classrooms could be named after donors. What do you think?

By Richard Cuthbertson, Calgary Herald

CALGARY — Calgary public school students in future years could be learning carpentry in school workshops named after, say, a home improvement store, or mixing fluids in a science lab bearing the title of an engineering giant.

The Calgary Board of Education has opened the door to classrooms and other school spaces being named after corporate donors and individuals who donate to school programs.

CBE administration changed two of its regulations last month, departing from a 2004 board decision that refused to entertain any part of a school being named for a contributor.
