Topic? Giving birth vs. college exam due.
Title? Mother- to- be- labor overs college exam at hospital in Georgia just before giving birth
Summary? Pregnant college student has contractions every three minutes, but also has an exam due within hours. How does she handle this? She works hard on her exam while sitting in a hospital bed to give birth.
Effects me? This doesn’t effect me in a way to say that i’m pregnant. I’m not, this just shows that some people can work hard. I am a hard worker and I would probably do the same exact thing. I always try to do my homework and I always try even when I want to hang out with my friends. This woman shows backbreaking work.

Title? Online threats against blacks nets arrest at Missouri campus

Summary? On Tuesday November 10th, 2015, a white college student was arrested at 2:00 am because she posted on a social media site that she was going to “ shoot every black person {she} sees”. The racial tensions caused two main administrators to resign, and most of the students with black roommates say they wanted to stay safe so they skipped class that day. the student still hasn’t seen a judge yet due to Veteran’s Day.
Effects me? I couldn’t ever imagine this happening at our school. I have black friends, so of course i’m against this. In my opinion, this is basically begging for segregation. I believe the girl deserves to go to jail, because what if she was black and someone else was saying this? she would probably be scared and not want to come to school.
Affects the World? This shows how some people in our world are cruel. They don’t think about things nowadays before they post or say things. Although she probably wasn’t really gonna do anything considering they found no weapons on her. She was just putting on a show, but it turned into something bigger than that. people should really watch what they post.
