I think this piece might interest you --- how we treat each other is a disgrace. We need some grace. https://lnkd.in/ds2qN9F . Comments welcomed.

Folks, yesterday saw guilty pleas of a dozen or so wealthy parents and coaches for bribery, illegal money transfers across state lines, and tax fraud among other charges. Felicity issued an apology, seemingly sincere. Here's an idea I want to refloat: When we get to the punishment phase, I want to reiterate the idea of a cy pres award. Elite colleges were harmed. True. But the whole incident shines a spotlight in inequality in education and across America. And, ironically, the bribes ostensibly went to help low income kids. Yup, that's the tax fraud part. So have those pleading guilty do just that: donate to a cy pres fund that benefits low income kids and the non-elite small colleges that serve them. Redistribute the cy pres to colleges with more than 40% Pell eligible students and/or 50% first gen students and under 1200 students and endowments under $10 million. Then use the funds for scholarships and institution sustainability. The cy pres agreement would be part of a court ordered settlement and the distribution could be decided by a cy pres committee or designated court appointed official. Make lemonade out of lemons. Force these parents to do what they actually said: give to help low income students. Do good from bad. …see more

As Biden and Harris speak, remember our children and the need to help them understand this election and how we celebrate Democracy (with a capital D) and equality and voice — citizens being heard. Note too that Trump hasn’t conceded. How do children understand that? …see more

Please read this and consider how and why we need to do things differently. Time to rethink leadership generally and in higher ed in particular. Don’t be scared off by a new idea. It is not as if our leaders and governance structures are such paradigms of excellence. We can’t be too scared to try something that could be beneficial. As always, comments welcomed. …see more

"These lessons are learned from a young age and from the environment in which you came, and after years of developing such self-belief, knowledge and focus, it becomes very hard to fit into what some might deem “normal”. If you believe you can create greatness and you manage to do that, it’s very hard to then accept that it can’t happen again." https://lnkd.in/d9jzaEA #founders #innovator #tech #innovation #entrepreneurship #startup …see more

PSA: If you're using a MacBook, DO NOT upgrade to macOS Catalina. Not yet. The transition from 10.14 to 10.15 is a giant PITA. It is filled with gotyas and software incompatibility issues. Here's what you need to know.
