The story of human knowledge.

The Null Curriculum Network is an attempt to illuminate the darkened corners of knowledge. The nine questions it asks are an earnest attempt to understand the nature of human inquiry. These are questions your formal schooling likely left unanswered on purpose.

None of the nine questions has a definitive answer, but everything we do here is in a sincere attempt to ask them better.
