Thoughts on contemporary education
I have been thinking more and more about the state of the education in the U.S. Recently I have read a few opinion pieces, from those that say one should only go to school in order to learn a trade (primarily business related), to those that think the advance of science and technology is the only real value of a University, to those that believe that one should engage in the pursuit of knowledge...

untitled 35
I am too afraid of myself and not yet enough afraid of what I will become. I am a two, a dynamo of that with which I am in love and that which I detest. I am a dichotomy: I can be nothing less and nothing more. I am hated and loved, knowledgeable and ignorant, privileged and marginalized.
