Guest Opinion
As a lifelong American citizen, I tend to think highly of my country under most circumstances. I enjoy the many freedoms that we as citizens are guaranteed under the constitution. I like the fact that I can express an opinion, however unpopular it may be, without fear of being thrown in a basement cell and stabbed with an electric prod or being immersed in freezing cold water.

It's an exciting time to be a new voter.

The day and age in which we live is often described with the societal highlights of today's advancements. The information superhighway and elevated big business generosity in terms of corporate philanthropy are topics which warrant ample emphasis.
Other less attractive aspects of community living are masked by a smokescreen of secrecy, which we all know better than to speak of.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
The familiar question that seemed easy to answer in elementary school often stumps college students, even those heading toward their senior year.
When our parents went to college, a bachelor's degree practically guaranteed them a decent-paying job, so that they could buy the two-story house, two-car garage and the white picket fence. Today, with more people graduating from college and a recession, employers are often looking for more specialized skills.
