Teen Essay Contest on Bullying

In The New York Times, on April 7, 2012, writer Nicholas D. Kristof announced an essay contest for teenagers on the topic of bullying. The article explained that bullying is a serious issue and stated that the Department of Education has recognized bullying as a "serious problem" for American teenagers. Mr. Kristof explained in the article, "We have a major national problem with bullying, and we need your help to understand it and figure out how to make headway against it." The hope is this contest will give us more information on the issue from teenagers dealing with it. If you are interested in learning more about the contest, go to The New York Times.
