      The study of the humanities is more vital than ever, as our society gets more technological.

      Studying the humanities asks the vital question on a historical, yet present basis.. of why are we here? what will we do while we are here on earth? And by what standard?

      I feel my round-about way to an education in “humanities” has simply been to read, and to read a lot. Being an avid fan of the printed word, and apps like Readup has allowed me to become a better reader & thinker.

      The study of humanities is a muscle, that needs to be exercised in individuals, or it withers, harming one’s ability to truly express themselves.
