Fingerprints focus of celebrity appearance at TL-M
Ashley Young, Miss North Dakota 2007, made fingerprints a focus of her personal appearance at TL-M School on Monday, May 5, but not in the usual sense. The fingerprints that Young addressed were the ones that every person’s actions and words leave on those around them. Young gave an outstanding presentation on bullying and the responsibility of students to stop bullying. She asked them to look around and see how many there were of them, and then to also count the teachers. The question that followed was whether they thought that there was a better chance that their numbers in action could have more of an impact on bullying than what the fewer teachers could do. The students replied in affirmation that they could, and should, be positive actors in the struggle against bullies. The students also learned the difference between physical and emotional bullying and the effect is has on victims.
