Post-Academia
Cally: Today, Charity and I decided to co-write a blog together. The general topic is "life after college," and covers our experiences in the world post-graduation. I am a second-year law student at the University of Baltimore.
Charity: Like Cally, I recently graduated from college, in my case with a degree in History - the use of which I promptly abandoned in favor of joining the world of the employed as an assistant in the Development department of a New York-based not for profit organization. It's been just over a year since I began my career, and it's been an eye-opener in terms of the reality behind the idealist's view of what it's like to work for a not-for-profit.
Cally: In addition to writing about law school and the not-for-profit world, we'll be writing about the news and politics, writing, and reviewing books, movies, TV shows, recipes and other sundries. There may even be some feminist ranting.
Charity: There will never be any ranting! We're calm, rational people.
