Like, statistically, how many people should be failing the class? At what rate, is there a problem with the class, professor, or students?

There was a report on ABC News NOW tonight about a teen whiz who completed her university education in one year. She will be attending law school next and she plans to write a book. This girl is smart and nice looking; she is poised and very well spoken with a vocabulary to die for. Has anyone besides her ever finished college or university in less than a year? Does she hold the record?

I can't talk about abortion, affirmative action, juvenile offenders treated as adults, medical marijuana, poverty/welfare, violence in media/ hate speech, guns, genetically modified organisms, euthanasia, anti-terrorist policies and civil liberties, foreign immigration, gay rights or gambling. I know, all the good ones, but I just want something persuasive and creative.

Ever since I've learned this in my english class, if I hear people talk this way it annoys me. In case you don't know, here is an example of one: You aren't going nowhere. (The correct way would be, you aren't going anywhere). Or here is another one: You won't get nothing. (It should be, you won't get anything). Okay, so you probably think I'm a weirdo, but this is like my biggest pet peve!

Regarding gun control:

My opinion is that guns do not kill people-people kill people. If we take away the guns, they will just find some other way-such as knives, etc.

I need some sort of fact---either statistic, expert opinion, historical evidence... that can support my opinion

Can you please help me find something on the internet WITH the website that can support my opinion?

Thank you so much and best answer gets 10 points ASAP

Most of the prestigious colleges have hit the record with rejection letters. Yale has sent out thousands of rejection letters, Harvard has done the same rejecting fully qualified applicants. John Hopkins has sent out more than 20,000!! rejection letters to most qualified students. I myself have gotten rejected to 2 colleges one of them George Mason and VCU the only ones Iv applied to. I think colleges are getting more difficult to get in to and they have really pushed up their standards because of the large applicant pool of incoming freshmen and they are rejecting even the most academically qualified candidates. What is your opinion on this do you support the actions of colleges? Why? If not then Why?
