“Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything” are not just words that can be used to summarize the last several years in the life of Colin Kaepernick, but also the future of Nike and other advertising giants in a system of rabid political polarization.
Angry Americans have been burning their Nike apparel in protest of the company's new campaign featuring Colin Kaepernick, but they are giving Nike's advertising team what it wants: publicity.
If you had to give secondary education a price, would you instantly think financially or mentally? You can envision their future in a number of ways — a break could be right in front of them, or they could choose to bet it all knowing that a shot is all it takes.

The Pennsylvania school system does not measure the success of a school on their student’s intellectual ability, but instead on whether or not their students are able to sit through and pass multiple mind-boggling and strenuous tests. If a school’s standardized test scores are high, then educators are praised for being effective.
On Sunday, April 22, 2018, a lone shooter ambushed a Waffle House restaurant in Antioch, Tennessee, killing four people and injuring several others. Mass shootings have been happening more frequently these days and most of the time, shooters intend to kill as many people as they can.

On Feb. 14, 2018, the unthinkable happened — at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida — a mass shooting that has completely changed the conversation on gun violence. Nineteen-year-old Nikolas Cruz entered this public high school with an AR-15 rifle, taking the lives of 17 people and injuring another 17 innocent victims in the process (Stanwood and Burke). Teenage survivors of this shooting have taken to the media to share their thoughts on the gun laws in our nation, and I am amazed at their determination and strength. I believe that we need to implement stronger gun regulations that would make it harder for people who aren't qualified to own a gun to purchase one. Specifically, we need to create background checks that take more than a day to process, teach mandatory classes to every new gun owner on how to operate the weapon, and ban weapons that can kill 20 people in 20 seconds.

One of Pennsylvania’s most important elections is taking place Nov. 6 — the gubernatorial election. Despite the fact that midterm elections are typically perceived as less important than the heavily televised presidential ones, the mid-term elections hold the most impact on the state’s. Because of the gridlock in Washington, D.C., more and more of law making is being accomplished at the state level. This means that whoever becomes governor in November will affect both Shippensburg University and the citizens of Pennsylvania immensely. Even with this knowledge, the voting in midterm elections is declining.
