“The Seven Liberal Arts” | Giovanni di Ser Giovanni Guidi

Life is not always a problem to be “solved” and in the economic realm there are some problems that can neither be solved by markets nor by the government.  That gap can be filled by partially filled by non-profit (charitable) organizations —  but not entirely as we shall see during today’s colloquium.

Join us today at 11 AM/ET when we review the economic activity of “niche verticals” in the education community domain. The surprising number of them; their appetite for money, their inspiration in political agendas and their claims of hegemony (found in the letters they write to legislators) provides insight into the competing requirements of a domain that is a “business” and a “culture”.

Unlike the economic activity of manufacturing and labor sector which have coalesced their lobbying into a few (less than 10) non-profits, the education industry has 1oo’s of these associations.  Every branch and leg of a typical school district, college and university, has evolved a non-profit trade association.  Maybe there are too many; maybe there are not enough.  Maybe this is the normal course of leading practice discovery.  We reflect upon these possibilities — and welcome others — for digital youth.

We have maintained this topic in our wheelhouse for many years because it offers insight into how redundancies in human resource management may chart a path toward lower cost.

Every year, ANSI’s Committee on Education administers a student paper competition intended to encourage understanding of the global standards system that also provides a solid prize — in the $1000 to $5000 range.  The topic of the 2022 Student Paper Competition will be: “Standards Support Innovation, Cooperation and Excellence at the Olympic Games”

For the past four years Standards Michigan has hosted four Saturday workshops to help students (and faculty) interested in entering the contest.  We will do so again this year.
