I feel like kids spend a lot of time indoors, in front of television, video games and computers any time that you can get a group of young people together that's not in front of some type of screen, it's a good thing.

I find it very heartening that the Albany/Alexander community has organized so effectively and spoken out so strongly to what I consider to be an affront to these students' rights, ... The good news is we have local people who are acting.
