Introducing the Idealist.org Grad School Blog Project

By Flickr user T. Young
For all of you on the lookout for social-impact grad schools, check out Idealist's newly launched Grad School Blog Project. The Project features a dozen bloggers who write about grad school, the search for grad school, their fields of study, their aspirations to make the world a better place, and tips for your grad school journey.

Among the bloggers are a former and a current AmeriCorps*VISTA, an Indian student in New York, a U.S. student in Scotland, a mom and nonprofit executive director, a full-time parent educator, a graduate admissions counselor, and more. We invite you to subscribe to their blogs, post questions and comments, and learn together. We'd also love to meet you on Facebook.

The Grad School Blog Project is part of the Idealist.org Public Service Graduate Education Resource Center, a collection of articles and resources tailored to you—the professional, the leader—ready to go back to grad school to further your career and realize your life's dream to re-shape your community.

The resource center offers a range of articles on varying topics, like financing and applying to school from the U.S. and from abroad, thinking about alternatives to grad school, and special considerations for service corps alumni and for current undergrads.

We are still looking for bloggers, especially in the fields of journalism, public interest law, public policy and administration, international affairs, and theology. The Project would also love to hear from more men!
