California Is Pricing My Generation Out of the California Dream (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A STUDENT'S VIEW - California has always sold itself as a place of possibility a state where people come to build careers, raise families and create better lives. But for my generation, that promise is becoming harder to believe. The reason is painfully simple: we increasingly cannot afford to live here. New research highlighted by the Pew Charitable Trusts shows just how deeply California's housing crisis is connected to poverty. High housing costs account for a significant share of poverty in
They Tried to Break the Jewish People. We Kept Building (opens the original)

A STUDENT’S VIEW - My generation of Jews has learned something I wish we did not have to learn so young: antisemitism is not just history. We see it on our phones.

As a young Jewish student, I was raised to understand that true leadership isn't measured by the size of your office, the title on your door, or how many people stand when you e
Stop Lying to Students: An 'A' Should Be Earned, Not Given (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A STUDENTâS VIEW -Â California can inflate our GPAs and lower expectations. But none of that makes students smarter or better prepared. I am a California student, and I have a simple request for the adults running our education system: Stop making things easier and calling it progress. I don't want a grade I didn't earn. If my work deserves an A, give me an A. If it deserves a C, give me a C. And if I fail, tell me then help me learn, work harder, and come back stronger. That is education. Wha
