This Is Me

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

I like to think Apple could have been referring to any and all of us on this earth.  I think it's about the choices we make and the paths we choose for ourselves, and that those choices define what we make of our lives and of the world around us.  At any rate, I hope that's the case for me. 
 
I'm a twenty-something MBA student at Indiana University, mapping out a future in the grey world of business while making a case for the green ways of sustainable living.  This blog is to capture my journey across the street to the School of Public and Environmental Affairs for a class on Sustainable Development.  Two weeks into the semester and I can already tell this group thinks differently than my b-school counterparts.  Though business has begun taking strides in the field of sustainability, there is still a long way to go.  And I, for one, hope to be a part of that change.
