Most often a sports like terms, but today, its a term that I’m using as I continue to hone my draft of my personal statement for doctoral work!
You are currently browsing the monthly archive for September 2007.
I’ve been spending a lot of time over on baptistnomad.com posting about life and politics thereby not posting over here on iRobyn.com. Well, that’s changing a bit b/c I’m officially applying to the Department of Anthropology at UIUC. This school is my #1 choice as the Anthro department provides substantial support and research interests revolving around borders issues, feminism, Latin America, Queer Theory, migration and violence. I am very impressed with the school and the Anthro department. I have been corresponding w/ some faculty and have narrowed down a few who could support and challenge my research. In fact, I met w/ one faculty member for coffee yesterday in Lakeview. I felt the meeting was positive and helps me have a better/deeper understanding of my potential place in doctoral work at UIUC.
So, the posting of my work and research interests and/or findings should resume on this site…the hobby of blogging will coalesce into more of a research hobby of blogging! After all, that’s what this site is all about!!

iRobyn dot com is the virtual web space for me to spend time blogging|researching, an opportunity to post my reading lists, and a place to house my academic thoughts.
iRobyn is rooted in the theories and practices of theological feminism[s], seeks to be faithful to culture gazing and navel gazing, is commited to being a critical social player and critic of society. Additionally, the work found on this site is a thoughtful, intentional, and critical response to the intersections of culture, gender, race and class. I seek out narrative and want to celebrate the ritual of narrative in a variety of ways, from a theological perspective to gender, politics, & culture. This site is about creating and celebrating the passion of narrative which is all rooted in the passion of friendship. I begin & end at a place of Social Ethics via the discipline of Theology.
