STUDENT NOTES AND COMMENTS ON THE CASE: I stand by the Court’s decision to uphold Roe v. Wade because I believe that whether a woman chooses to abort her fetus or not should ultimately be left up to her. The State should not have the authority to forbid abortions up until the fetus is able to live outside of the womb, at which point I believe that it is not moral nor should it be legal to abort the fetus. I agree with the decision made in the case of Planned Parenthood v. Casey to uphold the…

I was so happy to see all the pictures that came back with the kids and their blankets, all so happy that someone was thinking about them and was hoping they were okay. Then, my sophomore year…

to be closer to Central School of Practical Nursing. When I was growing up I moved around very frequently. We never lived in one place for more than a year. I grew up around the Akron area until I moved up to the Cleveland area my sophomore year in high school. I am honestly very glad my family moved away from the Akron area to Avon.
