A little sunken area of land nestled in the middle of the college. Scholarly buildings guard the shaded seating areas in silent reverence. Anderson University is not a large campus and it has quiet charm just as you'd expect.
It is really a lovely campus.
Sometimes I like to just walk around The Valley on my way to class or afterward. It's only about half a mile round trip from the center of The Valley to my car, but as you can see from the picture the gentle hills make this a very pretty walk.
But as I walked I thought about the class I had just left. Educational psychology. I felt small and unnecessary. I thought education was supposed to make you feel empowered? Why is it then that I only feel more insignificant?
Some days are like that.
Today is better. As I write about my struggles with my place in intelligent society, I realize that today I don't feel quite as irrelevant.
