College A Waste Of Time
1,693 wordsIn her article College Is a Waste of Time and Money, Caroline Bird attempts to pursued her readers that colleges are overflowing with students who dont belong there.

A Heightened Drinking Age
826 wordsI believe a heightened drinking age would definately not stop underage drinking. Mainly due to the fact that it is considered acceptable in our society already. Drinking, unlike drugs, is considered acceptable in todays society. It is even considered a right of passage when a person first begins drinking. I have witnessed this myself. It is considered humorous, when a person is drunk, rather than disturbing. This action can often lead to alcoholism when the person is finally legal to drink. Sinc...

Alice Adventures In Wonderland Coming Of Age
