Today, I was fortunate enough to participate in Professor Yasuhiro (Yasu) Yamakawa, Ph.D.'s webinar - Failure is Good! It was a two hour program that shortened the Babson College's first-year class. Throughout the webinar, as you can tell by the title, it was about "Failure is Guuuuuud, as long as you learn, build, and act again," which is straightforward but truly challenging to practice. I have to admit that I encountered Babson for the first time when I watched the famous "donut video" by Akio Toyoda a couple of years ago. https://lnkd.in/gAcYEMd8 Since then, I have been seeking a chance to learn from Professor, and today, it came true. So, thank you to those who worked hard to organize the webinar. However, the message I empathized with most from the session was not about the failure part (it does not mean that I disagree or something, besides, I felt I'm not taking risks enough to fail). It was the very beginning; "If you could solve ONE world problem, what would it be?" Interestingly, it's associated with the donut.

BILL & MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION GatesFoundation.org TCI GALLERY SPRING 2024 THEMES: Tenri.org CRYPTOCURRENCY CAPITALISM'S BEST*END HOMELESS. https://lnkd.in/e55sRd8b CRYPTO-FINANCE & WHAT'S ON THE TABLE. MR. MS. TEEFEY & SELENA GOMEZ-Rare-SuperStar WonderMind.com*SelenaGomez.com I ABSOLUTELY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY. I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE INFANT DEMOCRATIC-CAPITALISTIC MINDS OF TODAY BLAME THE USA GOVERNMENT. THAT SAID THEN IS ANY GOVERNMENT TO BE BLAMED FOR THE HOMELESS PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE WORLD.?... NO. GOD KNOWS ALL THE HEADACHES USA GOVERNMENT HAVE WITH THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THE NEW WORLD IS PRACTICALLY A SHOCK TO WITNESS. PEOPLE "ONLY WORKING" TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL... "IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." THUS DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS. THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE... ARE YOU.? HOMELESS A OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD..... The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets like factories, mines, and railroads can be privately owned and controlled. https://lnkd.in/eB98Jnv9 GOOGLE. EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS. HOWEVER CRYPTOCURRENCY CAN POSSIBLE ALLOWS AN EXPENDITURE OF CURRENCY TO BENEFIT ALL WHO USES THE CRYPTO & REGARDLESS OF HOW IT'S CONSUMED. THEREFORE IF A CRYPTO "HOMELESS" CURRENCY EXISTED IT'S MORE HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THE HOMELESS PROBLEM CAN BE VANQUISHED BECAUSE CURRENCY-FINANCES IT'S ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO BE TAPPED INTO FOR HOMELESS RESOLUTIONS. THANK YOU FOR READING.

I am incredibly impressed by Purdue's 3-Minute Thesis finalists, especially Paul Knudsen. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about his creative solutions to island disaster response logistics in the presentation below, given how unfortunately common it is these days. For those looking to geek out on the need for building resilient systems, fostering institutional collaboration, and capitalizing on competitive advantages check out his paper --> https://lnkd.in/gHuWbqS3
Purdue's 3-Minute Thesis Competition just culminated in the finals! Nine other finalists and I executively pitched our thesis work in less than three minutes and only one slide. The video of my pitch is available here: https://lnkd.in/gu2Dsyej

Battle of the Lands: The Creation of Land Grant Institutions and HBCUs--Fostering a Still Separate and Still Unequal Higher Education System Ms. Cooper asserts "Today, HBCUs are responsible for developing a large percentage of Black students in America. Despite HBCUs being founded as normal schools with less resources and representing only 3 percent of all higher education institutions in the United States, HBCUs have educated 10 percent of all Black students in the United States. HBCUs enroll twice as many Pell-Grant eligible students as other non HBCU institutions, yet HBCU graduates are 51 percent more likely to move into a higher economic bracket than they were born into than graduates of non-HBCUs. HBCUs also serve as a pipeline to professional schools looking for talented Black students, most notably by supplying the highest amount of Black applicants of any other type of University. HBCUs are also responsible for 80 percent of all Black judges, 50 percent of all Black lawyers, 40 percent of all Black engineers, 40 percent of all Black US Congress members, and 12.5 percent of Black CEOs. These colleges and universities are able to produce compelling results all while being historically underfunded, an action that still effects these institutions today. Despite the impact that HBCUs have had on the Black community, the number of successful alumni the institutions create, and the level of economic mobility an HBCU education can wield, the legitimacy of HBCUs in the modern day higher education sphere continues to be questioned. Some scholars argue that HBCUs are not quality institutions and have failed to achieve the quality and reputation of their counterpart institutions. It is no secret that these institutions are underfunded compared to their peer institutions, especially public HBCUs that rely on the federal government and the state for funding. For decades, all HBCUs have struggled to survive off of less financial support than Predominantly White Institutions (“PWIs”). The reason HBCUs are faced with this lack of funding is because of the dual education system that was not only encouraged, but sanctioned, by the federal government, allowing states to get away with segregation for far too long. From the creation of anti-literacy laws, HBCUs in the North founded by white missionaries to spread the Gospel, Southern states refusing to integrate, to federal and state governments continuing to control the funding of many HBCUs, it is clear that white control over Black literacy and development still lives today."
