>Recruiters have always (as far as I know and it has been my experience and that of my friends who were recruiters) had access to high schools. Typically they had a display up during such events as career day when colleges and technical schools had displays to present information as well. Most kids just totally avoided the whole display and researched it on their own outside of school if they were interested in obtaining information on military service.

It's still possible in my mind that being able to get into schools - even if welcomed with open arms - is different than being legally bound to have access to the school.
