Today, liberal arts colleges are producing a high volume of people who cannot find a job in the field which they specialized in. For many art majors, this is not a major impediment, for their craft can be practiced outside of a strictly academic setting. However, for thousands of students, skills were learned which were extremely valid in academia, but wither like a tree branch without light when in the private sector. The goal of this blog is to bring the social scientists together, to practice and even hone their intellectual skills outside of the academic setting. The scope of this website is intentionally broad, so that linguists can post next to modern political theorists.
