I grew up on the notorious west side of Chicago where walking down the street exposes you to random violence and stray bullets. There seems to be a race to death. Between gang pressures, the lure of drug life, and police brutality, a child’s path to success is riddled with societal landmines. I appreciate the…

I was going to go see Think Like A Man when I decided to do something a little more intellectually stimulating. I perused my email for event alerts and check out Art and Seek and find that SMU is performing a James Baldwin play. I recalled reading the play in college so I thought this…

Ever have a class that you can’t wait to be done with. I mean a class that is soo boring, challenging, so unrelated to your field that you would do anything for it just to be over with. I am in that course. It’s Operations Management, a supposed intro course, whose professor thinks it’s the…

When is enough, ENOUGH! I left undergrad with the wind on my shoulders feeling I had reached the mountain top. Then I moved back home. I found the job market to be tough and ended up making $7/hr working for a museum. I later moved into the wonderful world of banking and thought, "Surely, I…
