Every day is a new day with new advances, however as the world turns to more digital and technological advances, some majors that have nothing to do with technology can fall short from impacting as much as the STEM majors. With a non-STEM major that I am passionate about, I want to believe that...

A few of my friends have recently gotten involved in scouting, and it seems like it takes up a lot of their time. Some of them tell me that they are doing it so they can put in on their college applications. Do colleges value boy scouts (or eagle scouts, for that matter)? Is it something that I...
