to me, Idna, Diana

President MacLeod,


President MacLeod,

Thank you for your email regarding MSCHE accreditation. As the Director for Membership, I am happy to discuss any aspect of our process with you. I work with Diana Bonner who has provided me with some context regarding her communications with you. Please do not misconstrue her explanation of our process as a “green light” for WUaS to pursue any type of licensure, authorization, or accreditation process outside of MSCHE. Representing her statements as such is misleading and inaccurate. Additionally, MSCHE is not involved with the fundraising efforts of any institution, nor can we advise on such.

 As a reminder, to be eligible to apply for MSCHE accreditation, an institution must be able to demonstrate that it meets the following Pre-Applicant Minimum Requirements:


1.      The institution must be legally authorized or licensed, from an appropriate governmental organization or agency to operate as a postsecondary educational institution and must award postsecondary degrees or hold proper legal exemption in accordance with Requirement of Affiliation No.1 and federal regulation 34 CFR §602.28(a).

2.      The institution must be in good standing with no current non-compliance, adverse or the equivalent type of action with the state or other accreditors in accordance with federal regulation 34 CFR §602.28(b).

3.      The institution must be operational, with students actively enrolled in its degree programs.

4.      The institution must have a mission statement and related goals that define its purposes within the context of higher education.

5.      The institution must have a governance and administration structure that allows it to have education as its primary purpose and operate as an academic institution with appropriate autonomy.

6.      The institution must have documented financial resources, funding base, and plans for financial development, including those from any related entities (including without limitation systems, religious sponsorship, and corporate ownership) adequate to support its educational purposes and programs and to ensure financial stability.

7.      The institution must review the Certifications and Disclosures Statement and certify that the information provided throughout the application process is accurate, honest, and truthful.



Kind regards,

Connie Clifton

to me, Diana
Mr. MacLeod,
Like any other institution, WUaS can start the pre-application process if it meets the minimum eligibility requirements. Keep in mind that the entire process to become accredited usually takes more than 2 years. I would also like to draw your attention to minimum eligibility requirement 3 which indicates that students must be actively enrolled in degree programs and requirement 6 which specifies the financial resources that are necessary.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,
Connie Clifton

Dear Shauna McNally (Chase bank branch manager, Shadyside, Pgh PA), Shona Demus (Associate Banker), Jenny Ling ('Curated Coaching' "coash" in collaboration with Chase bank / Chase credit card & Stanford Latino Business Action Network LBAN),

Thanks so much for all of your help today ... and your email (Chase bank contact 'Curated Coaching' "teacher") Jenny Ling just as I was meeting with Shona Demus and Shauna McNally.

And good to talk briefly about 1) MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and 2) WUaS Cor (and see below) ... and regarding WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet each a Wikidata PIN # from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and to facilitate free online MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch degrees, and wiki schools for open teaching and learning for speakers of all 7,168 known living languages ... and potentially to end poverty worldwide with something like UBI experiments. 

I'd like to introduce you all to one another here. 

Thank you, all the best,

Dear Shauna McNally (Chase bank branch manager, Shadyside, Pgh PA), Shona Demus (Associate Banker), Jenny Ling ('Curated Coaching' "teacher" in collaboration with Chase bank / Chase credit card & Stanford Latino Business Action Network LBAN), 

Thanks so much for your email Shauna McNally, and great to hear from you! 

Jenny L, do you want to get in touch with Shauna - as the next step? 

Shauna, in Jenny and my hour-long video call on Friday, 12/8/23, we talked specifically about developing MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Scb for free online degrees in Spanish, and in all of the ~25 Spanish language countries out of about ~200 countries (and per the Olympics) - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/search/label/Spanish - and - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Spanish_language (planned in Spanish) - and for Physical-Digital WUaS Educational Services' stores (retail), and especially to end poverty with something like Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency - minepi.com/sgkmac (for all speakers in these 200 countries).

Best regards, Scott

Very nice to meet you, and I'm glad it seems, you Shauna M, and you Jenny L, have been able to communicate further. WUaS and I are seeking now to build out a business plan and establish a banking relationship ... and especially regarding Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) accreditation for WUaS, with offices in the greater Philadelphia area, and licensure with the state of Pennsylvania's department of Education. CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch (WUaS) has received the 'green light' from both, but needs to develop a WUaS business plan per MSCHE communications (with MSCHE's Connie Clifton), and figure out too how to pay the initial, I think, accreditation fees (of a $1,500 Pre-Application fee, and $5000 Application fee to MSCHE, and the $5,000 licensure fee to the state of PA - and where MSCHE serves and accredits universities in PA, NY, DE, NJ, MD, Washington DC, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin islands +) - and with which - this WUaS MSCHE accreditation - WUaS will be able to seek reimbursement from these states' departments of education, and others, for online free WUaS degrees for students in their homes - potentially $55,000 per year per student in the rich countries (out of ~200 countries) too, regarding what it costs for tuition to go to MIT itself for example - https://twitter.com/mscheorg/status/1734941749984825826.

Shauna, before you're away next week, how best for WUaS to begin to build out a business plan and establish a banking relationship with Chase (Curated Coaching) further please in some of the above regards? 

 Thanks, best regards, 

Scott GK MacLeod

Google Bard generative conversational AI, and extreme longevity ... and improving one's German with Bard too - 


Here's the 'hallucinatory' Google Bard generative AI on life extending gene therapies in German -

Hallo!

Kurz gesagt: Ja, es ist möglich, dass Menschen länger als 122 Jahre alt werden können, wenn wir das Altern verlangsamen können.

Die derzeitige Lebenserwartung in Deutschland liegt bei etwa 82 Jahren für Männer und 85 Jahren für Frauen. Die älteste bekannte Person war Jeanne Calment, die 122 Jahre und 164 Tage alt wurde.

Es gibt eine Reihe von Faktoren, die das Altern beeinflussen, darunter Genetik, Umwelt und Lebensstil. Die Forschung zeigt, dass es möglich ist, das Altern durch Änderungen des Lebensstils zu verlangsamen, wie z. B. durch eine gesunde Ernährung, regelmäßige Bewegung und Vermeidung von Rauchen und Alkoholkonsum.

In den letzten Jahren haben Wissenschaftler auch damit begonnen, an neuen Technologien zu arbeiten, die das Altern verlangsamen könnten. Dazu gehören Gentherapie, Stammzellentherapie und Medikamente, die die Zellalterung hemmen.

George Church ist ein Harvard-Professor für Genetik, der sich intensiv mit der Forschung zum Altern befasst. Er ist der Ansicht, dass es möglich sein wird, das Altern so weit zu verlangsamen, dass Menschen 150 Jahre oder älter werden können.

Church und sein Team arbeiten an einer Reihe von Technologien, die das Altern verlangsamen könnten. Dazu gehören:

Gentherapie, um die Produktion von Telomeren zu erhöhen. Telomere sind die Enden von Chromosomen, die mit zunehmendem Alter kürzer werden. Sie gelten als eine der Ursachen des Alterns.
Stammzellentherapie, um alte Zellen zu ersetzen.
Medikamente, die die Zellalterung hemmen.
Diese Technologien befinden sich noch in der Forschung, aber es gibt Grund zur Hoffnung, dass sie in Zukunft dazu beitragen könnten, das Altern zu verlangsamen und die Lebenserwartung zu verlängern.

Natürlich gibt es auch einige ethische Bedenken im Zusammenhang mit der Forschung zum Altern. Einige Menschen befürchten, dass die Entwicklung von Technologien, die das Altern verlangsamen, zu einer Überbevölkerung führen könnte. Andere befürchten, dass diese Technologien nur für die wohlhabenden Menschen zugänglich sein werden.

Diese Bedenken sind ernst zu nehmen und sollten bei der Entwicklung von neuen Technologien zum Altern berücksichtigt werden.


I asked Bard in German (to improve my German) -

Hallo Bard, waere es moeglich dass Menschen laenger als 122 Jahre alt mit Zeitalter verlangsamen Droeggen je nachdem Harvard Professor der Genetik George Church leben koennen?

And here's Google Bard itself -

Happy birthday, 
Scott

Agenda item 5 

Realistic Virtual Earth for History - Brown University Archives and Peter Norvig's birthday 12/14/23 - 

Dear Brown university archives, Peter Norvig (a head of Google AI, and Brown alum), Jennifer Betts, Raymond Butti, Andrea, and Brown University Special Libraries' Archivists, All,

Greetings, and I hope this email finds you well. How are you doing? 

As a birthday greetings to Peter Norvig, I'm writing to follow up to inquire how developments with building a #RealisticVirtualEarthForHistory further in something like Google Street View with time slider - and in this inquiry as a case example for all of us, Brown archives especially with machine learning & A, being able to research and build out hippy communes around Brown university in the 1960s and 1970s.  

How is or how might be this project going, about which I at MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch received around 3 Brown university archives' email replies saying I would hear back further after a week, but didn't hear back from you after the last one of these. 

How could I and others and Brown libraries + best wiki add all their hippie commune photography from the 1960s and 1970s with AI too to Google Street View with time slider ... and even make this conversationally interactive (eg pictures of hippies into conversational avatar agents) - for an iterating realistic virtual earth for history? 

Might I be able to newly add the 5 pictures of 58 Thayer Street Providence RI Oct 12 2023 to Google Street View to such new emerging IT infrastructure and regarding further digital realistic virtual earth research with building out this place and house in the 1960s and 1970s especially? 

PS I recently learned from Lego Customer Service (and regarding Peter Norvig's Lego Institute II too) that we may be able to eventually build Lego robots to move through Google Street View with a time slider, and physically on the ground too - and to possibly take pictures for such realistic virtual earth for history in Google Street View research, and see PSs.

Thank you, best wishes, Scott GK MacLeod

    Dear Chengdiao Fan, Nicolas Kokkalis (please forward), Peter Norvig, Neha Narula, John Hennessy, Lydia Pintscher, All,

    Greetings. How are you? I hope this email finds you well. I'm writing to inquire about the WUaS Corporation partnering with Stanford Mine Pi, and potentially in WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata PIN #, and to facilitate a single worldwide main cryptocurrency. 

    I just sent a Partnership Proposal via the pinetwork.atlassian.net page, and received this confirmation - 

    "Thanks!
    Your reference is PINETWORK-778183. Check sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org for a confirmation and updates."

    I've also attached a related PDF I added below. 

    While I thought about reaching out to Mine Pi's co-founders Chengdiao Fan, and Nicolas Kokkalis, and as Stanford PhD coders of Stanford Mine Pi - https://stanforddaily.com/2019/09/16/stanford-grads-develop-cryptocurrency-for-smartphone-users-to-increase-its-accessibility/ - I'm continuing to wonder how to report the loss of about 900 Pi coins on Sunday February 26, 2023 to the Pi Network's organization. I just looked up the Pinetwork.atlassian.net web page for the "scam" link, but it didn't really seem to offer categories to report this possible 900 Pi coins' decline in my Mine Pi coins' cryptocurrency accumulation (minpi.com/sgkmac).

    So, on behalf of the WUaS Corporation - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - I decided to fill in the 'Partnership/Vendor Proposals' ' link on this page - https://pinetwork.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/3/create/25 - and here's a draft of the form on the web, and for your reading:

    Summary* 

    Stanford Mine Pi - WUaS Corporation Partnership Proposal


    Do you represent an organization?

    Yes


    Provide your organization’s name here:

    WUaS Corporation 


    Provide your organization’s web page here:

    and





    Do you have any suggestions for improving the clarity and structure of the roadmap?

    Looks great, - yet with the WUaS Corporation / MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School having received a partnering email from the Pi Network organization in March of 2023 - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/03/purple-sunbird-stanford-mine-pi-wuas.html and https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2023/03/stanford-mine-pi-wuas-corporation.html - how about including the "partnering" or "partnership' word, searchable on in this roadmap?



    What other specific historical information would you have liked to see? Please specify which part of the Roadmap you are commenting on.

    As you may or may not know, and in the WUaS Corporation / MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School partnering with the Pi Network, WUaS seeks to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet, in all ~200 countries, and in their main languages, from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and to end poverty by seeking to distribute a single main cryptocurrency, Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency, via something like UBI experiments.




    What additional information would you like to see in the 'In Progress' section? Please specify which part of the Roadmap you are commenting on.

    How could the Pi Network organization extend this to all 200 countries' main languages, or to speakers even of all 7, 168 known living languages - "Released translation mechanism to enable Pi Chat Moderator community to help translate the UI text in the Pi Mining app in 50 languages; later extended to Pi KYC and Fireside Forum apps" ?



    What specific elements would you like to see elaborated in Version 2 concerning upcoming features, requirements, upgrades, and initiatives needed before entering the Open Network period?

    (Possibly something about - a video? - how and when some Pioneers will actually be able to buy or sell something with Pi on the MainNet blockchain when this eventually happens? ... eg an example, or an instance?)





    Do you have any specific suggestions on how we can better present the comprehensive plans for Pi Network's Enclosed Network period leading into the Open Network period?

    Looks really great




    Any other comments or suggestions?

    How best, please, besides such forms, and on Twitter - https://twitter.com/PiCoreTeam/status/1723041658046996834 - for the WUaS Corporation / MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch to communicate with the Pi Network further, and in the WUaS Corporation, for example, seeking to list on the emerging Silicon Valley Longterm Stock Market ... and potentially with Stanford Mine Pi for all 7.9 billion people on the planet, and in all 200 countries - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - and in their main languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages?

    9:55 AM (1 hour ago)
    to shauna.mcnally, shona.demus, Jenny
    Dear Shauna McNally (Chase bank branch manager, Shadyside, Pgh PA), Shona Demus (Associate Banker), and Jenny Ling ('Curated Coaching' coach, in an agreement with JP Morgan / Chase bank-Chase credit card & via Stanford Latino Business Action Network LBAN), 

    Greetings. With some encouragement to develop further a business relationship with you at Chase, Shauna McNally, - but not being able to talk with JP Morgan's Chase's "Curated Coaching" 'coach' Jenny Ling possibly until the next quarterly "Curated Coaching" meeting, per Jenny Ling's agreement with them, and thanks to Shona Demus's asking if I had a business card, where I only could show Shona and Shauna the World Univ & Sch sticker on the outside of my MacBook Air laptop computer, I did find some cards (a Scottish bagpiping card with my 412 area code on it, and a bookmark for my first book, mentioning the Academic Press at World University and School, a startup academic press planned in 7168 known living languages, and with machine learning and machine translation too - both cards being quite 'colorful':) from some years ago, that I'll seek to bring over to the Chase bank Shadyside  later today - and before you're away next week, Shauna. 

    (Am curious too about beginning the very first possibly 'flagship' WUaS Educational Services' store - for WUaS Lego Robotics' Kits for matriculating Pittsburgh students for free-to-students' MIT OCW-centric WUaS degrees - on Walnut Street, in the old Williams Sonoma building, as a mid-size store, and possibly also a large 'flagship' WUaS Educational Services' store in the old Walmart storefront, now closed, in the Waterworks' mall near Fox Chapel, and here's a blog post about this mentioning Shawn Flaherty, a Shady Side Academy high school friend from the second half of the 1970s - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/12/plumeria-pw-national-lower-of-palau.html - and who has law offices at the other end of Walnut street from your Chase bank; will add this to WUaS Corporation Agenda item D at the bottom of tomorrow's open WUaS Monthly Business meeting Agenda and News too - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2023/12/sat-121623-open-world-univ-sch-wuas.html and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/12/sampaguita-ph-national-flower-of.html)
