William Chung
\n<\/b>Senior, 17
\nLiberal Views
\nA1: Liberty, Freedom, and Patriotism.
\nA2: I do. It\u2019s a way for people to get their voice out, and just to show that they feel a certain way, and that\u2019s effective.
\nA3: No.
\nA4: No. I just think that there\u2019s a lot of conflict going on, there\u2019s
\na lot of foreign governments that don\u2019t believe in the same values as us. And they think that it\u2019s okay to invade other countries and kill innocent people. But the US is safe.<\/p>\n
Austin Coll
\n<\/b>Sophomore, 15
\nConservative Views

Maite Olivares,
\n<\/b>Freshman, 14
\nMexico Native
\nA1: Diversity, War, Oil
\nA2: Of course, because they are a way to make the government know the posture of the citizens about a situation, also they can influence other people\u2019s opinions.
\nA3: Yes, being a girl in a sexist society isn\u2019t fun.
\nA4: No, I know Mexico is an insecure country, but I wouldn\u2019t feel safer anywhere while Trump is the President of the United States.<\/p>\n
Noura Warsi
\n<\/b>Sophomore, 15
\nMuslim Background
\nA1: Freedom, Democracy and Personal Choice.
\nA2: I do. I believe that when people voice their opinions, the government will give the people what they want, and that will change the way of things.
\nA3: I don\u2019t, I feel that people are very respectful, especially because of the head scarf I\u2019m wearing. Everyone\u2019s been very respectful.
\nA4: Yes, and yes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
