Kiera Butler met 17-year-old journalist Chelsea Spencer at the Fall National High School Journalism Convention in Chicago. "If an alien ship had landed at the convention, the visitors aboard might have come to the conclusion that on this planet we do nothing else but high school journalism," writes Butler. She also met Wadner Brizeus, 17, who, according to his faculty adviser, is "great at seeing through the bullshit."
