Karolyn McCarty on LinkedIn: It’s been a while since I’ve completed my Bachelor of Arts - BA at Thomas… (2024)

Not counting trade schools or vocational schools because they have a direction and/or a focused end state. As far as other academic institutions, I would argue that the only students at any given university that have work ethic are the ones trying to attain a goal...medical, aerospace, legal, deantal to name a few...and then only a certain percentage of those students within those courses of study whom are really motivated to push forward. If your choice of academic study does not have a field of useful sciencific advancement, a state of the art that moves forward, contructive societal infrastructure, or at minimum a strong field of employment then why have you chosen to study it?

SAUSAGESA much-missed late friend and advisor FTC once quipped that at the end of the day most buy/sell business models come back to the production line.‘F***in’ sausages, Scroggs - just think about how to make and make a margin on better sausages’.Raw materials sourced and supplied cost effecfively into an efficient and predictable streamlined process, to transform them into premium products.Simple.Apply that to education and you find yourself quickly decending down the rabbit hole of ‘factory’ and ‘production line’ design thinking.The substack below shared by Matt Hart is a pretty compelling provocation about universities as factories.I remain committed to changing the sausage model. Maybe pulling rabbits out of hats.🐰 🎩 New Working Class

The career service is also excellent: you can work with them even after graduation. Additionally, IU boasts one of the best schools of music (Jacobs) and business schools (Kelley).🏓 Sports!: Are you a fan of table tennis (ping pong) or interested in sports in general? Let's chat! I can share some insider tips and maybe even challenge you to a friendly match.🌍 Navigating as an International Student: As someone who learned and works as an international student, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with it. Consult the OIS whenever you have any questions. They're very supportive, and you can always call.Embarking on this HCI/d program is not just about academics.
