Many elderly people reject technology instead of enjoying it, while many younger people obsesses over technology and act malicious, as in cases of cyber bullies.…

    I would get permission of the authorities, and go talk to a hospital and see if they are interested in this project. Also, I think once a year, we could send care packages to veterans, and wounded soldiers. I think this would be a great service for those fighting for our country. If this is a possibility, I would try to go to an organization that sends donations to our soldiers, and ask them if they would want to go about this project. I would try to get donations from various students, and companies with the help of some other members.…

    The mission of the NEOHSTEM Alliance, as stated on their website, is to "promote and support K-12 activities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) in Northeast Ohio. " The tradition of forcing students to participate in the STEM Fair has done nothing but contradict this mission; instead of "promot[ing] K-12 activities in STEM," it has bred a hatred towards science, and subsequently, a hatred towards the fantastic outcomes that STEM-related research can offer. As an avid science student who is currently enrolled in an Honors and AP science class as a sophomore, and is a leader of the school Science Olympiad team, I possess a love for science that I do not hold for much else. I have known since my elementary school years that…
