April 28, 2022 by Matt Santos 631 Comments

March 1, 2016 by Archived posts 2 Comments

By Serena Gomez |Staff Writer| Millennials: the egotistical generation that lives off technology and are content with it. “[...] Sometimes called Generation Y. Because of their dependence on technology, they are said to be entitled and narcissistic,” stated KPCC's Evie Liu.

May 31, 2015 by Archived posts 51 Comments

Humans and natural selection

February 14, 2015 by Archived posts 1 Comment

According to Charles Darwin, biological evolution occurs as a result of natural selection. Darwinism theorizes that in any given generation, some "stronger" individuals have a greater chance to survive and reproduce, rather than those who are considered "weak." Because not all organisms are the same, the ones with the ability to adapt to their environments will be the ones who flourish. This theory has been accepted by many, but with medical and technological advancements today, it's relevancy is … [Read more...] about Humans and natural selection
