The school I used to work for, a small charter middle/high school with ~200 students, did some sort of tobacco awareness grant program, from which we got some grant money (promptly spent on other poo poo, I assume) and various instructional materials (anti-smoking posters and stuff). And so one day, I get a text from one of the administrators that some science-adjacent stuff has arrived, and she has no idea what it is, and can I take a look? There's a bunch of boxes, and I inventory it, and we've got twelve complete kits for this demo, as if you're going to give one to every two or three kids in a standard size class (we did not have standard size classes). as if we would ever let the students touch the lungs, and not just do, like, one demo done by the teacher. So I text her back and say, "we've got twenty-four sheep's lungs," and me and the other guy who was helping me look through it got a hearty laugh at her reaction. Fun times. Never had to do the demo, fortunately; the pandemic happened soon after.

In biology we got to flick bits of eye and kidney at people, smh if you don't let people touch the lungs.

At my public high school we dissected a pig fetus. The AP bio students dissected cats.

We had a student who, during the fetal pig dissection, on his own, decided to attempt to remove the vertebrae while leaving the spinal cord intact. He apparently succeeded and last I heard he went on to become a surgeon. Cool poo poo imo

We were underfunded so the bio teacher got the son of the local butcher to bring in a bucket of cows eyes for us to disect. He also brought a whole skinless cows head which he put on the edge of the table, crouched down and used his thumb to move the eye from the inside so it looked like the cow was following you around the room with it's eye. yaffle has a new favorite as of 12:52 on Aug 3, 2021 |

Hmm in my school it was AP Bio that got the fetal pig and Physiology that got the cats The trash barrel of horrifying dead cats in the back of the room really hosed with everyone else who used that lab. I remember someone sending a girl to peek inside and she screamed one of the most horrible screams I've ever heard still to this day like 25 years later

My dad was a surgeon & when I was 12 he took me & my sister to watch him perform surgery. We got all cleaned up, put on scrubs, and met him inside the OR. The patient was a 46 year-old woman who needed her lung removed from excessive smoking. Watching that black tarred flesh writhing while being assisted in breathing was  and I had to bail.For lunch Dad took us out for barbecue ribs.  Needless to say I don't smoke. Oddly enough though I still enjoy eating barbecue ribs. R.E. high school dissections: we were lucky to get the whole 9 yards in AP biology. We got sheep eyes & hearts, but the big winner were the pig fetuses. Me & my lab partner got a stillborn pig so it was quite the chonker. We took out its intestines & used it as a jump rope.  Have an unrelated funny picture:

We never dissected in high school but the chem teacher brought in a deers eye to drop into a beaker of acid. Everyone wore their safety goggles in that class.

In fifth grade I had to dissect a chicken thigh for some reason and also we weren't allowed knives so we just had to use little sticks and kind of pull it apart, it was loving vile.

Poor school checking in. Dissected worms and we had to pay for the worms. Our parents had to "sign off" on the dissection and include 5 bucks or whatever for worms. Didn't get it signed so I got to watch my classmates dissect a worm. I'm fine with the outcome. E:

The dissection wasn't really very informative other than kidneys smell like piss, which i could have told you from eating them. Oh and getting the eyes out of a fish is really difficult, almost like they're designed to stay in there. But flicking bits of the offal at each other was very good, very bonding. One of them shared trauma events.

We dissected huge earthworms in our high school bio class, then starfish, crayfish, and a shark. The frog was an optional thing, I opted out. We did the sharks in open air at the city park, and it still reeked of fish liver and formaldehyde. In college we did fetal pigs in bio 101, and I taught labs where students dissected pigs, cats, mud puppies, lampreys, and sharks. Then there was the one semester I taught a lab with human cadaver dissection. I’m over all of it.

The dissection frenzy in USian schools is quite weird to me. Elementary school did have a cool collection of animal skeletons and taxidermied foxes, beavers, squirrels, etc. and in junior high we made tar in chemistry.

We looked at mouse bones inside owl poop in elementary school but all dissections were held off until high school biology, which was elective, so I never took it. Requiring dissections seems wild to me

My class dissected fish. But when the teacher collected them that morning from the fishery they apparently weren't paying much attention. Warm water fish tossed into an ice chest will go into shock. They will come out of that shock when warming up on a table. Under the hands and knives of students. Students will scream when they suddenly realize their dissection is now a vivisection.

I've known more than one person who got into medicine or academic bio because of the "loving awesome  " moment cutting up a frog or a worm or something. It's a neat thing that can kickstart a real love for a subject in someone who might not have found that if they weren't exposed to it.

In first world countries they basically say "oh this kid loves music and hates science and language" and instead of grinding them to paste with a standard curriculum that kid gets intense music training. In America we just go shotgun pattern and have everyone dig around in frog guts and pathetically attempt to play recorders and suffer through calculus then it's the colleges' jobs to sort them into music and medicine and math, 10 years too late. That's why Japan and Denmark and so on have a disproportionate number of surgeons and engineers and concert cellists while America has like 5 people that went to public schools and became noteworthy for something besides sports.

It makes sense to have people try more than one thing because we need like zero professional sporpsists or musicians. Maybe someone'll get into chem and get known as that cool dude who plays the clarinet at his lab's wine and cheeses
