• Let's Start Educating Americans
    The future of America, be it economically, socially, culturally, is linked to education. Our biggest threat does not come from external sources, but from within. I would not be where I am today without the education I received from my parents and from mentoring teachers at critical milestones in my life.

  • Justice For Kiera
    When Florida honor student Kiera Wilmont conducted an unsuccessful science experiment on school grounds, causing no injuries or destruction of property, the act ultimately resulted in her expulsion from school and felony charges. Such a ridiculous response to intellectual curiosity not only defies common sense but can potentially destroy the future of an otherwise stellar student. Such egregious examples of the school-to-prison pipeline run amok must be ended today. Justice for Kiera now!

  • Lodi Unified School District: Stop Supporting Disproportionality
    According to the 2011/2012 SARC (School Accountability Report Card) for Bear Creek High School, African American students were 16.4% (approximately 317 students) of the total school enrollment of 1932 students. However, they received 640.5 days of suspension; more than a third of the 1,833.7 total days of suspension. AB420 is currently trying to amend Education Code Section 48900 as it relates to pupil discipline. Members of our legislature recognize how the overuse of 48900 (k)1 disproportionately impacts minority students.

  • ASUN: Say "Yes" to Growth, "No" to Cuts
    Several students enjoy the publications currently funded by the ASUN, but the association has limited their ability to solicit advertisements and has now elected to severely cut their backing budgets. This unsustainable strategy will disenfranchise many students and will harm the university's ability to compete. The arts must not be sacrificed in the name of politics--these cuts must be stopped.
