“If I have a general criticism, which is true of my Shakespeare acting and most Shakespeare acting I hear, is that it is too slow. It’s too reverent. It is like taking a rap song in 400 years from now that we think is really wonderful and deciding it should be said slowly so all the lovers of rap can hear every word." - Mark Rylance

Taxpayers of the World, Unite!

foreignpolicy.com The Panama Papers confirm that the world’s elite cheat, lie, and steal. Will the masses finally do something about it?

[04/06/16]   I am weeks away from having the Master’s in Library and Information Science (MLIS) and I really need it. The MLIS is a version of the library degree that “prepares graduate students for exciting careers as information professionals who work in myriad information environments and professional positions.” Most of the jobs I’ve checked out either require the degree or lots of relevant experience, and I’ve never worked in a library or information setting. But I hope to, and one of the ways I’m going to prove myself worthy is by showing I have the skills to be a librarian or information professional based on what I’ve learned through school, and a bit of practical internship experience. It’s been a long process to get here, working full time and writing and taking online courses through San Jose State’s iSchool. And now that I’m almost done and I’m putting together my E-Portfolio, the culminating project showcasing everything I’ve learned and providing coursework as evidence, I can see how far I’ve come.
