The world around us is changing every day, and the decisions we make significantly affect our lives and the lives of those around us. We need to be aware of the events that are going on around us locally, nationally, and globally.

The professor will select current event submissions for students to summarize in class to engage in class discussions.
The article you choose must have been published in the last three months and be a minimum of five paragraphs (25 + sentences). You may choose your article from newspapers, magazines, or professional news sources from a hard copy source or located on the internet (no blog posts or YouTube videos).
