Dusty red blanket

It was 7 a.m. last Wednesday when my roommate and I were finally able to get into our apartment after being locked out the night before. As we left our friend’s house to walk home, we were greeted by a dazzling red-orange sky.

Israel still golden after report

Minimum wage blues

·

Being a college student gives you access to many things: a wide array of excellent research materials, helpful professors, other students with a focus in the same area to work with, unique cultural events – oh, and lest we forget the one so important it’s the only one advertised on T-shirts: parties and booze. However, there is one thing the average college student doesn’t have much access to, and that’s a well-paying job.

Reason for reflection

·

I think it’d be reasonable to say that the average American student appreciates education much less than a student in a place where the right to learn isn’t afforded to everyone.
