Bio: Masood’s personal experiences, including a dozen years in the New Jersey public school system and two years of studying abroad in Iran, motivated him to seriously reconsider the role of government. During college at Columbia University, he had a chance to examine the philosophical foundations of a libertarian outlook and came to see the reasonableness of liberty. Seeking to educate others, he served as Vice-President of the Columbia University Libertarians, where he was introduced to the broad community of supporters of liberty. In 2009, he graduated with a major in Biochemistry and a minor in Philosophy. Masood is interested in the realms of intersection between science and philosophy, particularly bioethics, and plans to pursue a degree in medicine.
Favorite Figures in Liberty: Murray Rothbard, Frederic Bastiat, Lysander Spooner, H.T. Engelhardt
On Students For Liberty: “SFL is filling a valuable niche in the liberty movement. Education and awareness of the message of liberty is an essential component of any lasting and meaningful change in society. By helping students and campus groups organize and take initiative, SFL facilitates exposure to the many fruits of the tree of liberty; SFL is planting the seeds of real change now.”
It is very intresting fot me to see how two different issues can come together and make maybe some thing new.
