This week’s news researched, written, produced and anchored by student Marcus McKeever covers a range of topics from Wall Street to flesh eating bacteria. Marcus also covers events in and around the school including last week’s visit by Nonieqa Ramos on the same day her new book “The Disturbed’s Girl’s Dictionary” was released.
Learning about the adaptations and experiences of a person who lost his sight was a theme of today’s conversation with Tommy Gibson. Facing imminent death from AIDS, Tommy survived and rebounded because he was fortunate to find a doctor who conducted one of the early medicine trials for the time before the current life saving drugs were available. In this same period he lost sight in both eyes. This life changing experience brought him from a successful career in computer engineering at Smith-Barney through a journey that led him to his current work as a massage therapist. Tommy was accompanied by his service dog, Argo. “I have a new understanding for completely blind people and how they get things done,” said student Spencer Erdossy.
This week’s edition of TCS Student News was researched, written, and produced by students Daj’a White and Salma Ruiz-Cruz. It covers stories on human trafficking, Guantanamo Bay, the status of Dreamers and news around the school.
