Those who participated in Prep’s Stock Market Club know that the stock market is the place where fortunes are made and lost, but, in the end, everyone gets to keep their shirts. These future financial ge niuses of our generation regularly met in the Link Computer Center with moderator Ms. Ella Glazer to converse about the potential earnings of various com panies; In this time of uncertainty in the country’s economy, these Prep students tried to make money by buying and selling shares of stocks in a virtual stock market game. Ms. Glazer clarified the virtual game, saying “the Stock Market Q ub gives students a chance to invest money in real stock market conditions. We can sell short, buy long, and buy bonds. New members are always welcomed. Some students have made a lot of money.” The only disappointing part for the winner was he could not keep the money. The Computer Club, also moderated by Ms. Ella Glazer, is a forum dedicated to the discussions of relevant and contemporary computer issues. In addition to meeting once a month in the computer lab to expound upon computer issues, the club also brought in guest speakers, including Mr. David Bailey, to discuss computer issues like network security. Mr. Bailey spoke to members about encryption of the network and ISPs. President senior Giuseppe Morgana and vice president senior Mohammed Khan also planned gaming parties and helped organized the monthly meetings with Ms. Glazer’s assistance.
