I know, "the supreme court is boring" "I'm a college student, I don't need to care about government until I'm old!" I used to say these things, too. If you're in fact thinking, "Damn, this is cool" then you're already more mature than I was at your age . . . two-ish years ago. Enough sounding like I'm old.
Alright, so this might not be the most interesting application of the material to you, but it's fascinating! We all know that the supreme court is incredibly important to the US judicial system. The supreme court has a lot of major changes facing them. Gay marriage, legalization of marijuana in California (the right for a state law to trump federal law), and many other permanent changes to this country will be influenced by their decision.
Now, the assignment: find any resource you want and comment about the post. If you bought a psychology book, this might be a good time to reference it. If you need a book, I have to intro books and a social book that I can lend you. Just let me know.
