    Study Reveals College Graduates Were Least Harmed by Great Recession

    There have been many foreboding headlines for college graduates since the Great Recession. Last April, The Atlantic wrote “53% of Recent College Grads Are Jobless or Underemployed—How?” Last May, WTVM.com of Colombus, Ga. reported “One in two College Graduates not finding jobs.” NBC News, in August, described how the “Economy leaves many returning students disappointed, deep in debt.” As we enter a new year, college grads can know there is an upside. … Read More

    New Year’s Resolutions for Cybersecurity

      2013—as the Champagne hangover fades, the New Year’s resolution begins. For many, January marks the opportunity to start fresh and improve on the previous year by setting goals—“resolutions”—and striving to achieve them. Weight loss, exercise, and money management are among the most common of all resolutions. After a season of too many cookies and cakes, not to mention holiday parties and gift-purchases, it’s only natural that a vow to … Read More

    Make It Stop: Shootings of 2012 Still In the Headlines in 2013 (Op-Ed)

    The mass shootings in 2012 were horrific reminders that gun control and mental health are two fields that need to be researched, re-evaluated, and re-addressed on Capitol Hill. As time goes on, I fear that politicians will overlook these issues in the midst of heated debates over the decision to raise the debt ceiling in February. The headlines are keeping gun control and mental health in the spotlight, but they’re … Read More

    Setting Sandy Victims Aside: Boehner Pushes Aid Package Off the Table (Op-Ed)

    Here are some statistics from “Hurricane Sandy By the Numbers: A Superstorm’s Statistics, One Month Later,” a Time article published November 26, 2012: 8,100,000: Number of homes that lost power. The outages affected people in 17 states, as far west as Michigan. 820: Sandy’s size in miles, as measured by diameter of tropical storm-force sustained wind, as it made landfall just south of Atlantic City, New Jersey—more than double the … Read More

    One Step Foward, Two Steps Back: South Korea’s First Female President Shadowed by Her Father’s Past

    South Korea, the country in the developed world known for its gender inequality, elected their first female president, Park Geun-hye on Wednesday, December 19, 2012.  CNN reports that Park won the election against incumbent Moon Jae-in with roughly 52% of votes when Lee conceded with about 48% of votes. Park, 60, is the daughter of authoritarian leader, the late Park Chung-hee, who ruled South Korea from 1961 to 1979. Park entered the political … Read More

    A Different Arms Race: Newtown Tragedy Brings Gun Control to the White House

    On Friday, December 14, 2012, one of the most devastating American tragedies since 9/11 happened at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn. At 9:30 am, twenty-six victims–twenty children, six adults–were killed by Newtown resident Adam Lanza. Many suspect that Lanza, suffered from a developmental disorder, most likely Asperger’s syndrome. He had obtained the guns used at Sandy Hook from his mother, Nancy Lanza, the first victim of that Friday, who used to go trap shooting. … Read More

    The Wage of a Continued Presence in Afghanistan

    According to Defense Secretary, Leon Panetta, “We clearly have had an impact on (al-Qaida’s) presence in Afghanistan…” Impact; what impact? Each day, an American family loses a loved one to the Taliban; roughly 2,000 soldiers have died since we retained a presence in Afghanistan in 2001, nearly eleven years ago. And many of those who fought, but were not killed, now suffer of PTSD, a growing mental condition which has … Read More

    Online Holiday Shopping & Cyber-Security: How to Stop a Digital Grinch

    With only two weeks remaining in the holiday season, online shopping sales—which have already reached new records this year—may peak even higher as consumers rush to complete their online shopping in time for shipments to arrive before the holidays are over. In early October, the National Retail Federation projected that more than 52% of consumers would purchase a holiday gift online. Shoppers, however, appear intent on making Santa’s Elves work … Read More

    Status Update: I’ve been Hacked!

    Chances are high that, at some point today, either you or someone you know has posted an online message through one of the many social media platforms available. Hundreds of millions of users flocked to social networks this year to do precisely that, and they are doing it in record numbers though smart-phones, tablets, or desktop computers. The problem, however, is that this development has been noticed by one group … Read More
