[quote=Anonymous]I believe it was clear that (a) Tina Fey got the "inspiration" for the movie "Mean Girls" from the book "Queen Bees and Wanna Bees," but "inspired by" is a very elastic concept; (b) the author of "Queen Bees" did her workshops at NCS and at other schools; (c) from what I recall, it was thought that NCS perhaps played a larger role in the author's book than other schools. With that said, when I read the NY Times article some years ago I thought about what colossally bad luck it was for NCS to hire this shameless self-promoter, who has given the school a black eye that still lingers (even if in attenuated form) over a decade later. On a substantive basis, the woman sounded in the article as if she was absolutely buying into the behavior with her "coaching." Ugh. [/quote]
