I had my annual meeting with Microsoft's Jason Matusow last week. Our second "annual" meeting, to be precise. He's director of Microsoft's Shared Source Initiative and I introduced you all to him last summer (see "A free lunch with Microsoft", http://www.nwfusion.com/newsletters/nt/2004/0802nt1.html) when we met at the Open Source Conference. This time around, the venue was the Open Source Business Conference, held at San Francisco's St. Francis Hotel.

Low tuition encourages career slackers?

Low tuition encourages career slackers? 06/22/2005 02:23 AM

The students whom I met during a brief stop at University of Wisconsin in Madison seemed to have chosen majors that aren't very useful vocationally.  My friends who teach liberal arts at high-tuition schools in the Boston area report that their students are very focussed on getting into a high-paying career with an MBA or a law degree.  Two girls at U. of W. who stopped me to ask about Alex seemed like good examples of what happens when tuition is only around $3000/semester (in-state).  One was majoring in philosophy and headed for a Ph.D. program in philosophy.  The other was in women's studies and headed for graduate school at UCLA in women's studies.

Were these a statistical anomaly or is there a correlation between low tuition and students pursuing the intellectual life?

DEVONtechnologies has set up a list of international help organizations on its homepage to be a starting point for those who want to give at a little bit of relief to the victims in South Asia. Hundreds of thousands fought to survive the tsunamis, now we can at least help them to survive the aftermath. Also, DEVONtechnologies donates 10 percent of the December, 2004, revenues to the UNICEF help funds for South Asia and plans to continue to do so also in January, 2005.
