Welcome to Folsom Lake College's Online Newspaper
Update: Now that the spring semester has come to a close, the staff of FLC's Newspaper Club will be taking a much needed hiatus for the duration of the summer until classes reconvene in the fall semester. We are excited to see that many of our staff members, including our long-time member and former club president Viki Papadakis will be moving on to bigger and better things. We wish them all the best and as always, we would like to encourage anyone interested in becoming part of our club to contact us through our About page or at folsomlaketalon@gmail.com.

Obsession Level 34We’ve all been there. We see someone playing a game on their phone and, intrigued, watch them play for a few seconds. After realizing we don’t understand it, we brush the game off as complicated--stupid even. Soon thereafter, though, we see everyone playing this game. As people hustle between classes, we see them focused on their phones, swiping the phone screen vigorously and cussing. We exactly know what they’re doing. Alright, after all this, we have to see what all the hype is about. We check to see if the app is free, download the game if it is, and bam—we’re hooked.

Common Core: What Is It and Why Is It Important?For most college students, thinking of a family is many years down the road. However, the majority of Americans do end up having families, and it is of vital importance that the American population begin to think about what they want their children to learn, and how they want the school curriculum to be taught to their children.
