"What I heard in this room was people in their own way."

this reminds me of my own attempt to bare 2 weeks as a grad student at the Art Instite of Chicago where I dropped out realizing all the high art theorizing was not going to match my social inquirty into 'the commons,' art as expression and accessible..

I did end up going to grad school through social work lens at U for C instead.

What I learned the most, or what sticka with me were questions the university and its professors did not want to answer. That was the most profound learning.

Sounds like you have been finding your learning, your people, your way. Trust the River to take you. I am trying to do the same. 💜

"There was no air in the room, the conversation felt vapid, to label a thought before speaking it, it felt so limp and empty. I felt my humanity step from my body and slowly walk from the room," beautifully summarizes some of my recent experiences among the Academicians. Good stuff here, thanks.
