Economic Situation!

I think the economic situation will affect everyone is some way.I think it will affect me a little bit but not as much as people who have loans, finacing through the banks for house or car payments, or people who have job(s) and work.One thing i have changed since this ecconomic situation is that i save money now instead of going shopping all the time and i now use that money for gas in my car to get to places.It's impossible now to go shopping like i used too because everything is so expensive now and i would rather drive place instead of walk intstead of going shopping.But as you get older you have to make sacrifices and i guess this is a good lesson to learn now.

Drinking Ages!

I believe that the drinking age of 21 should be lowered to 18.The reason i believe this is because most college kids drink underage anyways and when your 18 your considered an adult, so if your an adult i believe that you should be of the legal age to drink.Also i believe that if the age were lowered a lot of college kids would be safer as in not going to jail for underage drinking and other such things.

Mt Day!

I think that Lees-McRae's tradition of mountain day is imporant because it makes the students of LMC come closer as a family,meet new people and follow the traditions.I think this tradition is an imporant part of LMC its make the students osf the college become more like a family.Mountain day is a tradition of LMC and simliar to other peoples traditions,such as Christmas and how you celebrate based on religion.The traditions we have or the way we celebrate holiday or such make us who we are they prove our true identies.
