Last Topic of the Year, due by Sunday, June 7:

Perhaps its time to pick out some favorite memories of Pine Point. Let us know about three (or two, or one, or fifty) of your fond memories of your time at our school. Don't worry about choosing a favorite. Just describe a few good memories. (Feel free to do more than one post as memories come back to you.)

Remember to check the rubrics (to the right). Contributions to the forum can be brief, but must be well thought out and carefully written. No typos or grammar errors, please.

Parker's Post

What is happening in the DRC is horrific. I don't think we're paying close enough attention to it, mainly since our situation in Afghanistan/Iraq is getting progressively worse, but another reason would be western society just does not care. Since genocide has been going on in Africa for numerous years, we take their lives for granted. They are people, like you and me, that are getting brutally murdered everyday. Also, I'm sure the majority of western society doesn't even know what the DRC is, let alone what's happening at this very second. Africa just isn't as newsworthy as Angelina adopting a new baby, or Jessica Simpson gaining a few pounds.
