CHERYL ERICKSON– The Corsair As the creator of Peter Pan once said, “We never understand how little we need in this world until we know the loss of it.” James Matthew Barrie had a simple point in this statement. You don’t know what you got, till it’s gone. That rings true for so many things....
SEAN BLACKWELL – The Corsair According to a recent poll, 18 percent of Americans believe President Obama is Muslim while only 34 percent believe the fact that he is Christian, and not surprising, 43 percent proclaim they don’t know his religion.

The Corsair staff has recently learned that the administration at PJC is considering implementing a ban on smoking anywhere on the Pensacola campus – a rule which is already in effect on the Warrington campus.
