I
want
to
shake
the
apathy
out
of
this
school.
May
I
never
again
hear
the
words:
"You'rejust
one
person,
you
can't
change
the
world."
This
reminds
me
of
the
kind
of
shit
they
condition
people
to
repeat
in
Huxley's
Brave
New
World.
The
powers
that
be
thrive
on
apathy
it
is
the
religion
of
Corporate
America.
The
illusion
of
powerlessness
is
the
key
to'
maintaining
control
over
the
masses.
The
'if
you
can't
beat
'em,
join
'em'
attitude
is
what
has
perpetuated
all
the
tyranny
of
the
world
from
the
holocaust
to
the
war
on
terror;
the
complacency
of
the
participants
makes
them
as
responsible
as
the
tyrants..
Why

I
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
say
thanks
to
the
people
who
are
putting
the

paper
back
on
its
feet.
I'm
sure
it's
taken
a
lot
of
hard
work.
And
it
will
take
even
more
hard
work
to
keep
it
going.
I
decided
to
write
this
letter
after
talking
to
a
former
CNC
student.
This
individual
was
extremely
pleased

hear
of
the
rebirth
of
the
paper.
Now
living
outside
the
community
this
person
was
still
enthusiastic.
It
made
me
think
that
maybe
I
should
add
my
support
as
well.
As
this
is
the
first
issue
of
the
paper
I'm
not
sure
if
this
will
be
published.
But
just
in
case
it

I
wanted
to
say
something
to
the
other
students.
In
the
months
ahead
it
will
be
easy
for
us
to
blast

lives.
The
earth
and
our
lives
belong
to
us
let's
take
back
our
freedom.
This
newspaper
is
a
free
press.
It
is
our
belief
that
information
should
be
free
from
restriction.
This
paper
will
not
obscure
the
truth.
This
publication
is
not
a
mainstream
media
it
is
here
to
inform
you,
not
manipulate
you;
to
empower
you,
not
control
you.
It
is
here
for
you
to
share
and
participate
in.
It
is
a
free
exchange
of
ideas.
We
are
only
as
strong
as
the
people
who
participate
,
so
please
write,
draw,
photograph,
and
read
in
support
of
a
free
press.
We
will
not
pander
to
advertisers,
administrators,
or
the
Student
Association;
we
are
an
independent
media
source,with
the
sole
intent
of
being
a
free
exchange
of
information
for
the
CNC
community.

paper
for
supposed
slights,
to
criticize
coverage
and,
in
general,
negate
what
the
paper
is
setting
out
to
accomplish.
But
we
have
to
remember
that
the
people
running
the
paper
are
students
just
like
us.
And
they're
doing
their
best.
So
instead
of

about

maybe
what
we
should
do
is
try
to
be
patient.
