Homeless on Campus

I couldn't imagine having to be homeless and in college. especially if i was like Aesha and had a kid. i find it pretty sad that she wasn't aloud to take her child to the daycare at her school because the child was not old enough. if you have students who are coming from having absolutely nothing and are trying to make it for themselves you could at least off them a bed to sleep in. i believe that all colleges across the country should take a survey to see what students are homeless and try to find a way to help them out.

Blogs are a great way of sharing your thoughts and opinions. It is amazing to think about how they have come so far. Ten years ago, blogs first started to make it mainstream. Now everyone has one. They are a great way of finding information about things that aren't on the news. A perfect example of this was on Strom Thurmond's 100th birthday party when Trent Lott made reference to Thurmond's past segregationist leanings. Immediately people started blogging about this but it didn't hit mainstream news for almost five days later. Or when Russ Kick posted photographs of coffins of dead soldiers and the Columbia astronauts. Two days later the pictures had gone from Kick's blog to the front page of newspapers across the country. The best thing about blogs is that they are free. Anyone can have one or you can read anybodys that you want. Having a blog is great way to gather or share information.
