The Scholarly Blog of the Scholarly Student

This blog is made in dedication to the insurmountable, indomitable, and unrelenting Dr. Vrooman. Well more specifically for his Social Media & Society course work that requires me to do so, but nonetheless will this blog be made. This first blog will be made in an analysis of what makes a blog scholarly and how this blog can do so. The first step in doing so would require a definition of the word "scholar" and "scholarly." According to my very trusted and irreperable source, Google.com, a "scholar" is "specialist in a particular branch of study, especially in the humanities; a distinguished academic." Next we have the definition of "scholarly" as "involving or relating to serious academic study." So according to these definitions, in order for me to be labeled a scholar I must be a distinguished academic (which I feel I am, but the burden now falls to me to prove to you) as well as this blog be related to a "serious" academic study. Well I take Vrooman's class very serious, and his class nothing, if not, an academic study. As a senior who's studied and read numerous academic articles I know how to analyze and make something out of seemingly nothing. Including social media, internet drama, and more importantly why any of these things matter.
