Dear Mrs. Melrose, George (Preston, my Kimmerghame house housemaster in 1977-78:), Fettes Head of School Helen Harrison, (& Michael Stitt), Karen Jones, Fettes Community careers, (Shady Side Academy President Bart Griffith, and Head of Senior School Trixie Sabundayo Pgh PA), MSP Nicola Sturgeon, All 

A 9th item CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric wiki  World University and School and especially WUaS Corporation with the Fettes College-connected American lawyer in the DC area (who name I won't reveal here due to the confidentiality clause at the bottom of your last email) is potentially the WUaS Corporation multi-listing on many stock exchanges, including possibly the Silicon Valley long-term stock exchange, and possibly one in NYC, having noticed on LinkedIN that this nameless lawyer for now had some dealings with the NYSE in recent months. 

Also, in Monday's WUaS News and Q&A and in the video recording, I touched on at length these Fettes College, MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, Shady Side Academy networking possibilities, and see:


I probably won't wear my kilt after all - the same kilt I wore at Fettes to Church on Sundays in 1977-1978 because I had a kilt (and didn't have a suit as a Yankee teenager). And I think my friend T.. L.......... will join me at this Fettes get-together. 

Thanks so so much, abolitionally, best wishes, 
Scott

Greetings! 

Thanks so much for the invitation, and your email reply. Looking forward to the Fettes College 'Drinks and Canapés' get together in Washington DC on Wednesday, 4/10/24 - and potentially with my friend T.. L........, if he can make it. 

In the M 4/1/24 Open World Univ & Sch's WUaS News and Q&A, I expanded on some of the networking ideas I shared with you in my last email here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2024/03/red-alpine-catchfly.html - here - https://youtu.be/gNiiZadxe4A (and will add this email to the Saturday, March 30, 2024
"red Alpine catchfly: Fettes College - Drinks and Canapés' get-together, in Washington DC? * Scotland World University and School online for Scottish students from home + " ...  blog post too)- from about 12 minute marker (with an aging reversal machine thinking preceding this, in a Google Street View ROOM with time slider, conceptually, and which room could be used as part of a #RealisticVirtualEarthForSurgery too ... and Per Michael Stitt's previous work at The Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh) ... Some complex networking thinking follows, and to communicate with you further about this before the Fettes College 'Drinks and Canapés" in Washington DC on W 4/10/24. In networking in DC in particular, MIT OCW-centric could be seeking recent Fettes College graduates to matriculate at WUaS this autumn and for free online MIT OCW-centric WUaS degrees from home in Scotland (e.g. Bachelor, and or AA, and Master's, etc), and from whatever countries recent Fettes graduates are living (and see below).

1
M 4/1/24 open @WorldUnivAndSch @WUaSPress WUaS News and Q&A #RevolutionizingEducation #LegoRobotics 


(And see the PS below too)


2
In the M 4/1/24 WUaS News and Q&A I also touched on Fettes Career Partnerships' web page - 
https://www.fettes.com/familyforlife/careerpartnerships - which appears to be in your bailiwick, Karen (Jones) ... and where WUaS seeks to excel at this, and in WUaS also seeking to hire potentially as many as 2.5 million people over the next 50-75 years (so slightly bigger than WM), in all ~200 countries, and among speakers of all 7164 known living languages. How to plan for this ?


3
MIT OCW-centric https://ocw.mit.edu/ wiki World Univ & Sch is also interested further in exploring a possible collaboration with Fettes College as an IB World School (with Fettes having become this after I was a student at Fettes from 1977-78) - and for WUaS to offer online free-to-students' IB High School diplomas, or similar, to WUaS students from all 200 countries and in their main languages even ... and which Fettes College would surely benefit from remuneratively, for example.


Brainstorming - 
4
As CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric https://ocw.mit.edu/ wiki World Univ & Sch proceeds further with WUaS Accreditation, with the Middle States Commission on Higher Education MSCHE (with offices in the greater Philadelphia area), WUaS is seeking another 1st year undergraduate class to enroll and begin this autumn. Could some of this student body emerge from Fettes College recent graduates, and could others emerge from Shady Side Academy high school in Pgh PA, the high school I went to before and after my year at Fettes in 1977-78 ? Could the MSCHE accreditation ((and see the PPPPS below), with the state of PA's department of education licensure for WUaS, process, and document writing too, be added to the (above) President of Shady Side Academy Bart Griffith's Master Plan re below "Announcing SSA's Campus Master Plan" and see Bart Griffith's (and see the PPPS below) - 

"Our campus is a living resource, and every part of it—every stairwell, lobby, and garden—holds the potential to educate and instill a sense of belonging, "

and also for developing a realistic virtual earth for robotics and as virtual STEM field sites, and as virtual classrooms (and see too Peter Norvig's - above too - INCREDIBLE #ToolifyAIWUaS article in these regards - https://www.toolify.ai/ai-news/revolutionizing-education-with-machine-learning-and-ai-2574306 .... and see the PPPPPS below.


5
Further networking regarding 

The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh
https://www.rcsed.ac.uk/ 

and a #Realistic Virtual Earth For Surgery + (where I think Michael Stitt was previously employed)? 

And WUaS online Medical School in Scotland especially - with a #RealisticVirtualEarthForsSurgery and physical-digital #RealisticVirtualEarthForsMedicine + ... and aging regarding the Royal College of Surgeons too ?



6
Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency for Scotland too - in addition to Fettesians on this trip?

WUaS Corporation, our 3rd legal entity, a for profit general stock company legal entity in the state of California has a partnering email letter from Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency, and how could this benefit Fettes College remuneratively - and possibly regarding WUaS and Fettes getting reimbursement for our free to students' MIT OCW_centric WUaS degrees in Pi cryptocurrency, and possibly from the Scottish Parliament even? 

And Michael (Stitt), would you like to offer Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency free money daily to all the old Fettesians and similar whom you meet on your trip to DC and NYC where you, Micahel, and all of you, could start getting Pi cryptocurrency with - https://minepi.com/sgkmac - and get your own invitation code, and then begin to share this with Feteesians on your development trip as a way to give something to Fettesians? 
(And see the PPS below)


7
And in what ways could WUaS with Fettes explore beginning a flagship Physical-Digital WUaS bookstore computer store robotics' store, Educational Services' Department Store in Edinburgh, and for careers and jobs for Fettesians and for other approaches to remuneration for Fettes as well -

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WtXNAEzFp4DdVqKq3pxOPQOQE7ZCS8zqSQhxJmTz3-k/edit?usp=sharing


8
World Univ & Sch is also seeking to create an online-accessible virtual Bodleian Library + at Oxford University in a Google Street View with time slider #RealisticVirtualEarthForLibraries, and see PPPPPPS below - and for Fettesian (and WUaS worldwide, and Shady Side Academy) students and graduates potentially.  


Regarding development questions for Fettes College in all of the above, I personally am still impoverished, and in getting MIT OCW-centric wiki WUaS for a song (2 Scottish Small Pipes' albums of tunes, in 2020 and 2022?), but I think there are numerous further opportunities for development in the above, beyond what I've already sketched out. And while the above is a complex web of entrepreneurial opportunities too for Fettes, and Scotland as well ... I think we might be able to explore some of all of this further in the next week leading up to the "Drinks and canapés in Washington DC" soon, and far beyond.


Thanks so much, looking forward to the "Drinks and canapés in Washington DC, on Wednesday 10th April from 6pm – 8pm" and to meeting you Michael, and other old Fettesians, especially.

Best regards, 
Scott

Announcing SSA's Campus Master Plan

Dear Shady Side Community, 

Building on Shady Side’s proud history of compelling architectural design and effective campus planning, we are excited to share with you later today the vision for the next phase of development for our learning spaces. 

Our campus is a living resource, and every part of it—every stairwell, lobby, and garden—holds the potential to educate and instill a sense of belonging, deepening all of our experiences, memories, and emotional connections to Shady Side. 

With such student experience top of mind, we seek to even more fully realize our mission through the Academy's spaces and have prioritized the following principles in our design: 

  • Relationship Building & Student Engagement
  • Connected Community
  • Interdisciplinary, Real-World Learning 

As we have designed and built, we have been mindful of community health and safety and, as a 140-year-old school with an aging physical plant, those concepts that set us up for the most sustainable future possible. The plan includes energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly designs, including the smart, adaptive repurposing of underutilized campus spaces. 

As a credit to the pioneers who so thoughtfully designed SSA’s Senior School in the early 1920s, our campus has continued to adapt well to new circumstances, one of the primary markers of its greatness. Over the past century, Shady Side has continued to preserve the campuses’ most cherished characteristics, while also responding to growth, change, and renewal. 

We are fortunate to enjoy such a beautiful, inspiring campus, one that has been developed as a result of the talents and generosity of so many. I trust the original architects and visionaries of SSA would be proud we remain a school on the move—and that we are building upon their brilliant designs to help both the institution and our current students face the challenges of today. 

The journey is shaping us in dynamic new ways. We look forward to sharing more with you later today!

Best wishes,

 

Bart Griffith ’93

President

 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.


If, following a review by the Commission staff and peer evaluators, the institution is determined by the Commission to satisfactorily meet the Pre-Applicant Minimum Requirements, it will be allowed to submit an application for Candidate for Accreditation Status.

Moving forward, please direct all of your communications regarding obtaining accreditation to me. Ms. Bonner and I are the only MSCHE staff who work with applicant institutions. Copying other staff members can be confusing and counterproductive. We will be happy to answer any questions you have and assist you with our process.

Dear Mrs R. Melrose, Fettes College, All, 

Greetings, and Happy Easter. 

I'm planning to attend the 

"Drinks and canapés in Washington DC, on Wednesday 10th April from 6pm – 8pm

Mission Dupont, 1606 20th St NW, Washington, DC 20009

Free to attend."

driving from Pittsburgh PA about 4.5 hours away ... may wear my kilt, the same kilt I wore to Church, for example, at Fettes in 1977-78, and even bring my Scottish Small Pipes too in the car.

Might I bring my good friend from Reed College from ~1979, T... L....., at whose I might overnight in DC (and as a diplomat in the US State Department? Not sure he'll come - but am inquiring having asked him). 

Thanks, 

Scott Gordon K MacLeod (Kimmerghame  '77-'78 - and George Preston above was Kimmerghame's house master :)


PS 
Some of the things I might seek to network about with Michael Stitt on W 4/10/24 in DC, and regarding MIT OCW-centric wiki Scotland World University and School for free WUaS degrees for Fettes' graduates studying online from home   - 


Thank you!
