The Academy of Dung Beetles' Award is being rolled towards art teacher Shand Stamper at McCracken High School in Paducah, Ky., who set up an exhibit where students were told to stand on an American flag while they wrote how they felt about it. The exhibit was a re-creation of “Dread” Scott Tyler’s 1989 "artwork" titled “The Proper Way to Display an American Flag.” Many Paducah residents were furious. One wrote: “The teacher should be fired and run out of town. I have a son serving to protect the flag at this very moment.”
