In all seriousness, I have very little right to give any advice in this thread, being in highschool.
Also in all seriousness, just because you're relatively new to the business doesn't mean you're wrong when you make a suggestion. Just as the fact that I've been in the business close to twenty years doesn't mean I'm always right. All of us, even the old pros (sometimes especially the old pros) still have quite a bit to learn.
AlsoAlso in all seriousness, I have a pretty extreme arrogance and King of the Booth complex which gets encouraged by the fact that I'm probably the most theater tech-knowledged person in the school* and the seemingly constant compliments from student council leaders and other teachers don't help me overcome it
See http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/education/9503-king-queen-booth-complex.html....I'm sure other CB members will also be happy to help cure your King of the Booth complex.
This is part of the fun of educational theater. At a recent conference I overheard a conversation where a sales rep for a certain national company told a teacher he could plug whatever he wanted into a dimmer, no problem! It was followed with a pitch to sell low end LED junk to the same person. I had to grab the teacher and point him towards CB to double check what the vendor was saying. People see "school" and equate it with easy prey.
