Opening Remarks

Bienvenidos amigos!

My name is Justin Schober, and I'm a 22 year old student from Brentwood, TN. I just recently graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Spanish (concentration in Hispanic Studies). I will be attending the University of La Verne School of Law in Ontario, CA this fall.

I've decided to start this blog to compile my studies regarding the ever-changing nature of American demographics. As a graduate in Spanish with experience in travel and study in Spain, Ecuador, and Mexico, along with internship experience in immigration services, I hope this blog will allow me to sharpen my expertise and share it with others.

Most people roll their eyes when it comes to the workings of immigration, especially concerning immigration from a factually-based perspective (as opposed to an agenda-based one). However, the topic of immigration itself is anything but an 'eye-roller,' and often leads to heated (and unfortunately, uninformed) debate within the American private and public sector about legislation, regulation and assimilation.

That being said, immigration is not only a political and economic issue - it's a cultural issue.

Awareness is key, and thus my stated purpose for this blog. I will of course insert my own opinions that I feel the reader should take into consideration, however promoting a political agenda is of no current interest to me. I encourage anyone reading to comment, criticize and contribute new information concerning the material I post on this blog. Enjoy!
