Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?

What 5-letter word typed in all capital letters can be read the same upside down?

I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,

A high school has a strange principal. On the first day, he has his students perform an odd opening day ceremony:

There are one thousand lockers and one thousand students in the school. The principal asks the first student to go to every locker and open it. Then he has the second student go to every second locker and close it. The third goes to every third locker and, if it is closed, he opens it, and if it is open, he closes it. The fourth student does this to every fourth locker, and so on. After the process is completed with the thousandth student, how many lockers are open?

Who am I?
