Gregg Midon is a second-year MA student in the Department of East Asian Studies with a focus in Japanese. He has earned BAs in philosophy and music from Loyola University Chicago and the University of Arizona respectively. Initially inspired by the capitalist criticism, examination of contemporary inequality, and proposed alternatives of Drs. David Schweickart and Nicoletta Ruane Montaner at Loyola, Gregg’s later undergraduate studies were directed at music composition and remote digital music communities under the tutelage of Drs. Jacob Ransom and Yuanyuan He at the University of Arizona. As a graduate student fulfilling a lifelong curiosity with Japanese language, Gregg's research interests are focused on Japanese literature, digital anthropology, and becoming an all-around better language user!
