The Future

While I've had a broad outline of my plans after I get my bachelor's degree - teach, work in a think tank/policy research center, get my graduate degree - I haven't thought too much about the fine details. That may have changed.

I recently read something about an organization called Teach for America. They recruit people, most commonly recent graduates, and send them into some of the most impoverished schools in America. The contract is for two years and the teachers earn scholarships for graduate school. This sounds fantastic. While it will probably be two years before I graduate, plenty of time to look at many opportunities, this one is going to be high on my list of choices.
