I was forced to examine my interests within the field of architecture and refine them to a possible thesis topic. Sounds like you're already on that path with this entry!

Go for it! You have a solid and varied foundation, and I think you would have a lot of fun teaching things that interest you. And I agree about the 20th and 21st centuries... I too am intrigued. One of my favorite classes in college was the World in the 20th Century, focusing around the world worlds and the aftermath that followed. I even brought down my history book to re-read "for fun." Eastern Europe and the former Yugoslavia has been particularly fascinating to me recently.... Maybe I will move to Poland. They reallly need Jesus there. The world we live in today has been impacted by the geo-political changes, wars, genocides, techonological advances, the modern and global ages, the discoveries into the universe... and the world continues to change at a rate unprecedented in all of known history. I've been thinking about going back to school to get my M.Div or ThM... and then, maybe, someday... I'll become a professor and we can both teach at Harvard... or at you're La'bri... we will turn the world upside down. :) I think you would make a great professor, Alissa… Go for it!
