I just sent a letter to the news and observer people's forum about the subject in the post below. I'll post it here in a few days when it's been published / I'm sure it's not going to be published.

Hopefully you get in a place other than the opinion section.

I want to see some frontpage action. Even if they write their own article based off your letter. Ask for credit.

soft-news* editorials + front page = never gonna happen, the people at the n&o know what they're going to do

*well, it's not really soft news, but there are much, much bigger things going on; taking this to be hard news is a tiny bit of a stretch.

If the school is doing something illegal, it's big news.

Though anything that shouts "sexism" and "segregation" are sure to rile controversey and interest... especially from somebody who actually has an important 'title' at ncssm...

they don't get published if you're young. seriously.

I submitted a letter. I had my mother submit the exact same one, with just a tiny bit different wording - if anything, hers sounded worse so they thought maybe she plagiarized me.

guess whose got in the paper?

I got one in when I was 13.

Similar school-related diversity issue.

Same. And at the same age.
