Neologism - Slackademic

Academic pursuits have always been very valuable and will always continue to be so... but for the very few who would call themselves students of life there is another field greater than academics... Slackademics. Slackademics is the pursuit of all things that are not academic or at least that are not in one's field of academic study at the expense of what is in one's field. Slackademic people see little value in a standardized education. The word itself comes from the combination of the word slack and the word academic thus creating slackademic. Slackademic should not be seen only in a negative light as it's original context was using it with a more neutral to slightly positive slant.
