My friends and I are starting a student-run magazine surrounding topics in the humanities. What should I know as the writer of the health/medicine section?
I’m a high school student who likes to learn about medicine as well as the intersection between medical science and the humanities/social sciences. Since our magazine is mostly humanities-based, my writing will be based on public health, bioethics, and other ways medicine and health are connected with society and culture. As a high schooler, my limitations include a lack of budget, lack of time, not being able to travel, and knowledge that mostly comes from biased sources. What are some ways I can minimize bias in my writing and avoid spreading misinformation? What are some things I can do to provide information that is accurate as possible? What are other things I should keep in mind? Thanks #CV23

Thinking of dropping a degree and going for another one, I mean should I? After giving it a year.
I'm in my first year of a BA degree, my subjects are Psychology, English Lit & Education. Things are not working well for me, I am not liking it so far, disappointed with my college and myself. All I think of is working in the media field, taking interviews, hosting shows, working in publishing companies in abroad. A reason I choose English Lit & Psychology at the first place, plus options are very limited here, their isn't much choice for a degree and I can't move out yet. It's so freaking confusing! Should I drop this degree and go for a media degree instead? Is it too late? Is the media field safe? What if I loose everything and ruin my career? Family disappointment is another issue :-( Failure scares me so much.
