Welcome to The Crucible

Hello and welcome to The Crucible, your melting pot for what’s hot. As a college student, we must be fully aware of the world around us. Every day, new events occur, and new changes happen. Without accepting this change and these events in our life, it would make us inadaptable to the growing world that surrounds us. Thus, success would not be in reach for us to grasp so firmly and climb upon it. Therefore, I would like to make readers aware of current situations going on around them, and simply relate these occurrences so that we can become better in tune with our surroundings.
Currently our generation is spawning at the midst of a financial crisis. Banks foreclosing, credit tighter than a college kids wallet, and the stock market seeing its lowest decrease since the great depression are all things that play a role in our future success rate after college. Michigan, currently holding the highest unemployment rate in the country at 10.69% is proof that we are in a vulnerable era to decreased success. However, knowledge is key in these situations. Having this key, could enable us to overcome, step up from this ditch of disaster, and separate the sea of financial burden with our staff of knowledge. This knowledge can be obtained through observation and relation. We shall come together as one, by reading The Crucible, and becoming aware of the surrounding situation and relating it to our lives to form the knowledge that we must obtain to venture on down the path of greatness.
I would also like to venture into the political region of our country with news stories that have a top priority in a college student’s life mainly due to their relationship with our success in life. We have a newly elected president, who preaches change and a new era. However, talk is cheap. That is why I will be bringing to you the stories and new from Mr. Obama to show the proof of change or no change. We are at a time in history were not even the best orator can bring us from the depths of financial burden. We must paddle with action taken, not by the words of our mouths. Therefore, news of upcoming change and events will be brought from Washington, and related to you. Thus, it is our generation that needs to gain superior knowledge and step up to strive for the success and longevity of our country.
Thank you for beginning the transition to success, and for gaining the knowledge that will provide wind beneath our wings to fly in the clouds of the great and bring our society back into the realm of forward movement. Hope can be a powerful scope on the rifle to shoot down devastation and triumph over failure. We must learn from mistakes and gain the tools necessary to move forward. College is a way to become specialized in a career field and become a smarter person, however we must not over look the need to aware of our surroundings and situations so that we can maximize our skill of the hunt for success, much like a lion in their territory on the verge of taking down a gazelle.
