Please forgive my hometown....
My undergrad degree was in International affairs... Started in 1998-finished in 2003 (key point started pre 9/11)
This august I decided to go back, to school (grad school)....
Thought international affairs would be my cup of tea....well now.. not so much....
I think I was least impressed where the consensus fell....it was far off from where I was at....disappointing to say the least....(not the best way to sum it up but, If I had too....the discussion revolved around terrorism war terrorism war...it's not why but, that we are their now..blah blah blah).....
Everyone talked about working for the state department when they got out to combat terrorism, or that they would work for the UN so that they could..get to the root of why terrorism....I think you get the jest of it....
Anyway, I decided to leave that, and am now looking for a profession or grad program that is more interested in helping people in some way or form....
I know this is extremely ambiguous.... just thought I would throw this out there in another attempt to avoid...life long slavery to the corporate masters.

"The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."
