    Have you ever wondered why the modern world is so unequal? Why the United States is so technologically advanced while places like Papua New Guinea and places in Africa still rely on a hunter-gatherer way of life? Jared Diamond contemplates these questions through his exploration of geographic luck and evaluation of the first development of guns, germs, and steel. Among the various contributors to the initial progression of growing nations (and guns, germs, and steel) include: the cultivation of wheat, smallpox and malaria resistance, general continent shape and location, as well as the development of writing. Cultivation of wheat led those in the fertile crescent to surpass others who didn’t have the advantage of hearty grain to keep them…

    The article "The Danger of Telling Poor Kids that College Is the Key to Social Mobility" by Andrew Simmons brings up a great idea of what the teachers and counselors are telling the underprivileged students the wrong thing. As Simmons brings up students should not be told that college is the only way to reduce economic hardship and that’s the only point to try attend college. He expresses that students should see a college education as a stepping stone to a great career and be able to give back to the community or be able to create their own company. He also expresses that students are taught differently as those “from wealthier backgrounds to be innovators and creators while the poor kids who do very well in school are taught to be educated, capable employees.” I personally agree with the points Simmons brings up about how students should not be “taught to be educated, capable employees” but rather “to be innovators and creators.”…

Understanding his motivations is hard when you don’t know the character. When Orr wrote about the surprising conclusion, he was spot on. It caught me off guard for a Star Wars film. Killing off all the characters that got the schematics to the Death Star was a bold ending.…
