Academic Perspective is a news and editorial blog written by students, but not justfor students. Founded by Ben Drucker in October, 2009 along with fellow Columbia High School juniors Ben Donald and Seth Wolin, Academic Perspective examines modern issues from the viewpoint of high school students and is not the usual high school newspaper. Academic Perspective was founded by and is run completely by students, with no school or teacher management. Topics covered by the staff of over 10 regular contributors range from national politics and economics to social commentary to critical analysis of art and culture. Academic Perspective is a full-fledged online magazine with all content written and edited by high school students and is quickly becoming one of the foremost student-written publications on the internet.
