Competition in school is harmful to the students. As unglamorous as it sounds‚ the purpose of a public education is to prepare the young person to enter the workplace as a fully functional worker. Competition encourages rugged individualists. The workplace needs team players who will cooperatively work together to meet common goals. The workplace does not need a group of stars who will not share the bonus and who work alone rather than working together. The more successful competitor‚ winner‚

Editor’s Note: This occasional series of articles looks at the vital things in our lives and the chemistry they are made of. You are what you eat. But do you recall munching some molybdenum or snacking on selenium? Some 60 chemical elements are found in the body‚ but what all of them are doing there is still unknown. Roughly 96 percent of the mass of the human body is made up of just four elements: oxygen‚ carbon‚ hydrogen and nitrogen‚ with a lot of that in the form of water. The remaining

for another. Just this semester‚ I has math class with an Asian girl‚ I noticed at the end of the day‚ I also saw her in my chemistry class. Towards the middle of the semester‚ I realized I would need help in math as well as her notes from chemistry on the days I won’t be attending. I decided to go up to her after pre-calculus one day to ask if she’s in my 3:40pm Chemistry class‚ to my surprise‚ she told me she wasn’t. I asked her if she was sure because the other Asian looks just like her! She said
