+<h2>Why Schools Should Exclusively Use Free Software</h2>
+
+<p>by <a href="http://www.stallman.org/">Richard Stallman</a></p>
+
+<p>There are general reasons why all computer users should insist on
+free software: it gives users the freedom to control their own
+computers—with proprietary software, the computer does what the
+software owner wants it to do, not what the user wants it to do. Free
+software also gives users the freedom to cooperate with each other, to
+lead an upright life. These reasons apply to schools as they do to
+everyone. The purpose of this article is to state additional reasons
+that apply specifically to education.</p>
+
+<p>Educational activities (including schools) have
+a <a href="/education/education.html">duty to teach only free
+software.</a> Here are the reasons.</p>
+
+<p>First, free software can save schools money. Free software gives
+schools, like other users, the freedom to copy and redistribute the
+software, so the school system can make copies for all the computers
+they have. In poor countries, this can help close the digital
+divide.</p>
+
+<p>This obvious reason, while important in practical terms, is rather
+shallow. And proprietary software developers can eliminate this reason
+by donating copies to the schools. (Warning: a school that accepts
+such an offer may have to pay for upgrades later.) So let's look at
+the deeper reasons.</p>
+
+<p>Schools have a social mission: to teach students to be citizens of
+a strong, capable, independent, cooperating and free society. They
+should promote the use of free software just as they promote
+recycling. If schools teach students free software, then the students
+will tend to use free software after they graduate. This will help
+society as a whole escape from being dominated (and gouged) by
+megacorporations.</p>
+
+<p>What schools should refuse to do is teach dependence. Those
+corporations offer free samples to schools for the same reason tobacco
+companies distribute free cigarettes to minors: to get children
+addicted <a href="#note1">(1)</a>. They will not give discounts to these
+students once they've grown up and graduated.</p>
+
+<p>Free software permits students to learn how software works. Some
+students, on reaching their teens, want to learn everything there is
+to know about their computer and its software. They are intensely
+curious to read the source code of the programs that they use every
+day. To learn to write good code, students need to read lots of code
+and write lots of code. They need to read and understand real
+programs that people really use. Only free software permits this.</p>
+
+<p>Proprietary software rejects their thirst for knowledge: it says,
+“The knowledge you want is a secret—learning is
+forbidden!” Free software encourages everyone to learn. The free
+software community rejects the “priesthood of technology”,
+which keeps the general public in ignorance of how technology works;
+we encourage students of any age and situation to read the source code
+and learn as much as they want to know. Schools that use free software
+will enable gifted programming students to advance.</p>
+
+<p>The deepest reason for using free software in schools is for moral
+education. We expect schools to teach students basic facts and useful
+skills, but that is not their whole job. The most fundamental job of
+schools is to teach good citizenship, which includes the habit of
+helping others. In the area of computing, this means teaching people
+to share software. Schools, starting from nursery school, should tell
+their pupils, “If you bring software to school, you must share
+it with the other students. And you must show the source code to the
+class, in case someone wants to learn.”</p>
+
+<p>Of course, the school must practice what it preaches: all the
+software installed by the school should be available for students to
+copy, take home, and redistribute further.</p>
+
+<p>Teaching the students to use free software, and to participate in
+the free software community, is a hands-on civics lesson. It also
+teaches students the role model of public service rather than that of
+tycoons. All levels of school should use free software.</p>
