This column we’ll be covering two of the most folksy social conservatives, renowned for their conservative and faith-focused hearts (read: not [...] http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/11/15/from-the-classroom-2012-fever/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-the-classroom-2012-fever http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/11/15/from-the-classroom-2012-fever/#comments Tue, 15 Nov 2011 20:47:11 +0000 Fish Stark http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/?p=23750 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/11/15/from-the-classroom-2012-fever/feed/ 1 My generation was more instrumental in electing Barack Obama than youth had been in any previous election–and now, in 2012, we bear the responsibility of deciding whether or not to help re-elect him as well. Will he be an enduring fad, like skinny jeans and the word “lol”, or cast aside like silly bandz and [...] http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/25/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-44/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-44 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/25/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-44/#comments Tue, 25 Oct 2011 20:12:56 +0000 Fish Stark http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/?p=23579 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/25/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-44/feed/ 0 I know I’ve made the process of choosing a college sound extraordinarily difficult, but to be fair, I’m a bit biased—that’s the point of the process where I’m at right now, so I don’t have much to compare it to. But from what I’ve heard—from upperclassmen friends and admissions officers alike—the worst is surely yet [...] http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/10/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-34/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-34 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/10/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-34/#comments Mon, 10 Oct 2011 17:37:08 +0000 Fish Stark http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/?p=22975 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/10/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-34/feed/ 0 Hi, all. College–the searches and the stress–becomes an essential component of high school life, and in an era where it’s increasingly important that students attend college, the amount of emphasis placed on the subject has increased radically. This four-part series deals with the ups, downs, and idiosyncrasies of the college search.  We’ve talked a little [...] http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/03/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-24/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-24 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/03/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-24/#comments Mon, 03 Oct 2011 19:33:36 +0000 Fish Stark http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/?p=22768 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/10/03/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-24/feed/ 0 It costs a lot to go to college—some people would say an arm and a leg.

Much of the cost is necessary, however inconvenient—to bring in top [...] http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/09/29/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-part-1/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-part-1 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/09/29/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-part-1/#comments Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:07:55 +0000 Fish Stark http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/?p=22288 http://www.eyeonannapolis.net/2011/09/29/from-the-classroom-the-college-chase-part-1/feed/ 0 I generally enjoy meeting adults other than my parents, not because I dislike my parents, but because other adults make original conversation. (“Pick your clothes up off the floor” becomes dull about the fourth time you hear it). In fact, a lot of young people enjoy being around adults more than we let on.
