Some Religious Studies Blogs for Your Reading Pleasure

I don't know about the rest of you, but it's been less than a week and I'm already pining for classes and professors. Lucky for me, I'm taking an intensive Chinese course this summer at Portland State University.

But when that fact just isn't enough, I turn to the following religious studies blogs to satisfy my hunger for extracurricular nerdiness.

These two blogs were recommended to me by a professor of religion at Portland State University. I met with her this week to chat about grad school and research.

Two interesting things about this PSU professor of Religion: 1) She went to grad school at UChicago with Will and Lisa. (I got stories.) 2) She has just started the Religious studies program at PSU this year. Next school year, PSU will be offering Religion for the first time as an undergraduate minor. This is an amazing development because most universities are actually cutting out religious studies programs due to poor funding or lack of interest.

Well, I've got to continue unpacking. Take care everyone!
