    WELCOME TO THE COMMON ROOM

    An Open Forum For Rational Discourse and Well-Reasoned Opinion

    The Common Room is intended to be a conversational catalog of short editorial opine and factual articles that will casually apply Great Books learning to current events. In this section, the reader will find varying opinions and perspectives, but the common thread that binds our cultural commentary is a reverence for the Great Books of Western Civilization, which we are actively working to rejuvenate through conscientious and reasoned discourse.
