And I'm off...

My name is Pete Jensen and I am graduating from Baylor University in May of 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in History and Biology. Regardless of whether I take this next year off or continue on to graduate school I created this blog with a goal. Our society has become of interest to me and I am starting an independent research project on what it means to be a person living in the 21st century. While this is nothing new I imagine that no matter how many people contribute their insight, not everyone will be included in every project. What I am doing is simply traveling around the country and the globe in search of people's perspective. I am meeting people from all walks of life and recording their story.
