It’s been a while since I was able to discuss the dream. Now, I am renewed in vigor and purpose, and the dream continues. Soon, the word will go out to the world, a call for those who would help build the dream. Core course developers will be secured from across the globe to bring the dream to reality in the form of practical courses for those seeking to increase their knowledge and skills in five diverse areas of studies (yes, it’s blossomed a bit!). There are discussions about beginning one School, then another….
I once worked for a major printer manufacturer. We did not choose to create one printer, then another. Our view was much larger. We simultaneously released an entire family of printers (6 models) on the same day, world-wide. It was a much more difficult plan, thought by many inside the firm to be entirely too ambitious (which is what fired my passion!) for reasonable release. We did it, and that family of printers remains today as one of the most wildly successful releases ever known.
I know they are there. They are waiting, hoping that someone will allow them to create the educational model for the 21st Century. It is wonderful to get this phase going. It will be difficult, tiresome, and frustrating. I know that. But, in the end, we will have a better product, in each School, for those who will benefit most from them: the one product we can somewhat control, and find to be our very best advertising moving forward into the future: our student/graduates.
I look forward to that reality. Now is the time. The product has never been needed more, and our future students await our determination. Let us begin. Let us see what we shall see, shall we?
Indeed! We shall!
