Some of your classmates or 先輩 may have successfully transitioned to business. Ask them for tips. Or just think about what jobs outside academia might interest you, talk to folks in those fields, and apply for jobs. You might learn from the interviewing process even if you’re not successful at first.

There might be many paths (either moving into business or an academic specialty other than teaching English) using your present state as a platform to build on. Ex: Many of the faculty now at Todai 文学部、教育学部、 etc., got their start teaching English at Komaba till something in their field opened up.

As you of course know, the pro-impeachment forces need 67 votes in the Senate to convict. This can be achieved by a combination of replacing Rs by Ds and having Rs turn against Trump, which will only happen if public opinion turns bigly against him.

Brown said (my paraphrase) ‘yeah. I told him to keep quiet.’ Good times.

My favorite class was ‘history of the Vietnam war’ (taken in winter 1973). We had Harold Brown (Secretary of the Air Force under LBJ, then Caltech President) come in and answer questions. I asked about Ernie Fitzgerald (the cost analyst who exposed the C5 cargo plane overruns). 1/

I was an undergrad at Caltech (BS 1973, Geophysics) and the humanities classes were really great (we had to take an average of one humanities class each term). There were enough choices that almost everyone could find things they liked. I don’t recall much if any disdain among my fellow students.

Can’t read Danish, but it appears to be a story about events in the USA, not Denmark.
