The difference between differance and difference is E. Ever heard of it? But, I think a student could have done this.

It is not in Portage, Indiana. I live in Merrillville. It can’t be Portage in Indiana because their colors are red and white, not green and white. It would not make sense for it to be a green sign.
I have to admit, I thought the same thing when I first saw it.

Just so everyone is aware…this picture is at least 10 years old. Not sure where the poster dug it up, but there’s not even a front parking lot in this shot.

For those of you who think that this daycare/school is for losers/dropouts…well, you are probably a good part of the reason the students at this school chose to leave yours. I’m glad your lives have gone perfectly. Empathy fail.

I’m pretty sure that the teachers aren’t in charge of the sign.

Don’t know if you did it on purpose, but regardless i hardly think it’s fair that you nuts off at someone about their grammar and spelling when you spell intelligence and lowering wrong.
Like i said, not sure whether youre joking or not, if you are it still doesnt seem right to have a go at someone for it.

yes it’s in Indiana not Michigan. I used to run cross country and we’d go by that sign almost every day.

By: RhythmRunneR

It’s Portage Indiana. That sign is real close to where I went to middle school.

Although Derrida win is philosophy fail ;_;

Glad to see portage failed so hard.

lawl @ your blatant lie. You’re not the only one who lives in portage, this is just a normal school, not some correction facility. Don’t try to say our schools ‘exceed academic standards’ when half the kids at our high school are heroin addicts.

The sad thing is, half the people on this site probably don’t know what’s wrong with this picture.

I know where that is, and I am somehow not surprised to see that at PCEC.

but différance can neither be conceptualized nor realized, it recedes continuously.
if they were to make a différance it would expose différance which would cause différance to be “exposed to disappearing as disappearance. It would risk appearing: disappearing.”
So, in fact, by Derrida win, teacher fail – continuously. The win/fail binary has been exploded.

hahahaha I go to Portage schools and this school sign is for the kids who are failing classes and can’t make it in regular school hahah how ironic

By: Erik

Erik — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 15:42:00 +0000

Let’s be fair, we all know this is a reference to Derrida cleverly snuck into the sign as if to say our teachers engender the double movement of difference and deferral of language to create meaning.

Yes, this photo is from Portage, MI. That PCEC building is about a 1/2 mile from my home.

Differance, is French for difference

Duh!!!!!

Clearly they’re referring to the Foucauldian concept, not the English word… (tehe)

Differance is a word, created by Derrida in his philosophy so its not quite as fail as one would think.

yeah i live in this portage. this building is right in front of my school. it’s pretty much just one step above juvy which makes this sign even funnier, at least for me. (‘it’ being that building…not my school)
