Nice to hear from you, Nancy - and thanks for joining the WUaS News and Q&A today (for which you appear at the end of this recording - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bOKBtWyqSmuBJFj4zS3cwbY7VHJOTUVm/view - and after which we talked about another ~30 minutes, that wasn't recorded).Thanks so so much too for offering to volunteer.
As a possible initial exploratory project, here are perhaps two first creative steps to reaching out to hypothetical Shady Side Academy graduates, and Fettes College graduates, for WUaS online free-to-students' Bachelor degrees, that are CC-4 MIT OCW-centric, studying from home - ocw.mit.edu.
One question I have is how to plan for multiple languages (https://sites.google.com/view/worlduniversityandschool/srilanka - with Google Translate and humans too ... in the WUaS IT architecture from the beginning) in developing the ability for students to register and apply for free-to-students' degrees, through one of these following websites, first in English. Eventually, WUaS may head for this URL - http://worlduniversityandschool.edu - ... but it used to be that this followed on full accreditation. Nancy, since BPPE and WASC senior licensing and accreditation are up in the air, do you want to explore to see if WUaS can get a .edu suffix without accreditation? It could be an interesting inquiry. And WUaS seeks to build out in WUaS Google Workspace for Education with WUaS Wikidata in its 300 languages (Wikipedia's back end structured knowledge database which WUaS is in), WUaS Wikibase, and WUaS Miraheze Media Wiki ... all students and WUaS volunteers a Wikidata Pin #.
Perhaps we can explore some of this, and meet again on Monday to talk further ... all very open ended ...
Cheers, Scott
PS
On the WUaS wiki side (in contrast to degree side), here's a Children's_Literature_and_Wisdom -
And in these regards, and for your information, Denny Vrandecic is the founder of Wikidata (which again WUaS is in) ...

Greetings, Nancy!
A newsletter might be another creative opportunity at WUaS for volunteering ... and translatable into many languages with Google Translate ... and even regarding developing the Academic Press at WUaS with machine learning, and machine translation, in GDocs with Google Translate for example.
In what ways could we grow student populations in many degrees, and in many languages eventually (with cultural creativity of newsletter writing and reading)?
Cheers, Scott

I'm following up to inquire if you, Ziyad, and Matthew, might be interested, brainstorming-wise, in heading the Lebanon World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States (where Lebanon WUaS would emerge from here) - online Medical School and teaching hospital - eventually in Arabic, and French, in the future. With your last name, Matthew, do you happen to speak French? (Was glad to learn today that Zoom now can voice translate into French and Spanish). CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch (of which I'm the founder) is planning online medical schools in all ~200 countries (per the Olympics), and in their official and main languages too https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages.
