- Vince DiFelice Horn Entrepreneurship Official's student startup pre-accelerator referred to as Summer Founders culminated with Demo Day. This pre-accelerator is modeled after the Silicon Valley startup accelerator concept. It is a 12-week intensive experience during which aspiring student entrepreneurs spend the summer searching for a repeatable and scalable business model. However, it is primarily focused on helping our students, our community and our entreprenurial eco-system. On Demo Day, the students meet with and present to community members who may offer guidance, advice, and connections to the market and customers. There is no more powerful form of learning than entrepreneurship; no more powerful form of student development than the learning that comes from working on a startup. Working on a startup while in school serves as a powerful vehicle to accelerate learning about one’s interests, about oneself and, as a byproduct, about business in general. In doing so, students realize potential and successfully pursue individual aspirations aligned with their interests. I refer to this realization as “Interest/Market Fit”. Just as the Customer Development Process for the entrepreneur culminates with the realization of Product/Market Fit, I suggest this “Student Development Process” for the student culminates analogously with the realization of Interest/Market Fit. Congratulations to our Summer Founders: Hanna A. Armstrong, Joshua Artis, Thomas Repetz, Annabelle Brame, Cade Krueger, Evyn Appel,Thomas Kramer, Jenna Tomasch, Dylan Mooney and Alex Berman on their completion of Alfred Lerner College of Business & Economics at University of Delaware's Horn Entrepreneurship Official's student startup pre-accelerator. #UniversityofDelaware #entreprenerushipeducation #startup #business

- Oumarou Abdoulaye Balarabe The Responsibility to Uplift Each Other in 2025: A Call to First-Generation College Students As first-generation college students, we carry a unique responsibility: to uplift and support one another in navigating spaces where we’ve often had to pave our own way. We’ve learned that waiting for systems to work in our favor isn’t the answer. The power lies within us to create spaces, opportunities, and legacies for ourselves and future first-gen students. As we step into a New Year, let’s make 2025 the year we: ✨ Celebrate Resilience: Honor each other’s wins, whether big or small, visible or invisible. ✨ Create Access: Use our experiences to guide and mentor others who are just beginning their journeys. ✨ Collaborate Intentionally: Build communities of support where every first-gen student feels seen and valued. ✨ Commit to Action: Move beyond words to tangible efforts that uplift and empower first-gen success worldwide. Why This Matters⁉️ Every time we support one another, we build a stronger foundation for future generations of first-gen students. We ensure that first-gen excellence is not the exception but the standard. We’re not just changing our own lives. We’re shifting the narrative for families, communities, and entire systems. Take Action in 2025‼️ I’m calling on first-generation college students and graduates everywhere to embrace this responsibility as we go into the New Year. Let’s stop waiting for change and start building it together. ✨ Share Your Story: Your journey can inspire someone to believe in their own potential. ✨ Mentor Others: Be the guide you wish you had when you started. ✨ Celebrate First-Gen Success: Amplify achievements and show the world what’s possible. Let’s make 2025 the year we thrive and help others thrive, too. 📢 Ready to create the change we’ve been waiting for? Share how you’ll support fellow first-gen students in 2025 in the comments below or send me a message. We’re in this together! ✨ Together, we are unstoppable. Let’s make first-gen success a legacy, not a rarity. #FirstGenPride #Leadership #Mentorship #TogetherWeThrive #2025Goals
- Jason Gulya Maintaining Academic Integrity is a big deal. (and no Sam, we're not going to change it to suit your company) This semester, I'm really stepping into one of my new roles at Berkeley College: The Chair of our AI and Academic Integrity Committee. I've written a bit about it on LinkedIn and BlueSky. I get very different responses. When I write about it on LinkedIn, I often get criticism about how we should just "let students use all the tools available to them, since we're preparing students for the real world. Then, just grade the product." Well, yes and no. We are preparing them for the real world. But that doesn't mean they always get unfettered access to everything. It never has. Then I write on BlueSky. I get criticized for not safeguarding Academic Integrity enough. Now... If I went through all of my ideas about Academic Integrity and AI here, my post will be very long. Instead, I'll end with just a couple of big ideas. Hopefully, they don't come back to haunt me. 1️⃣ Academic Integrity is really important. I know. I said that already. But it bears repeating. 2️⃣ It's okay to hold students accountable for their decisions. It seems obvious. But we need to avoid extremes here. We shouldn't put all the burden on the student. But we also shouldn’t characterize students as people who "can't help but cheat." My students are smart, savvy people who know a lot. I try to treat them like that. 3️⃣ The definition of "Academic Integrity" shouldn't come from businesses. It should come from schools. It should come from students and educators. It doesn't have to be restrictive or punitive. But that's for educators and educational institutions to decide.
- Zi Nean Teoh I joined Flint wanting to make a difference in education. It didn’t take us long to realize that shaping the future is… challenging, no? Then, what keeps us going? For me, there are 3 main reasons: 🏫 At Flint, we partner with a lot of schools around the world, and I got to witness first-hand the behind-the-scenes of teachers and admins whose efforts often go unnoticed by students — I came to learn who the real “unsung heroes” are. 🧱 There are a lot of adults (+ young people!) who are devoted to cultivating the future for the next generations. Just as “Rome wasn’t built in a day,” doing anything great will take time and patience — I came to learn from these people grit and tenacity. ☘️ So many people are collectively building upon the same future in their unique ways: from teachers, admins, parents, students, organizations, individuals and more — I came to learn we aren’t alone in this. Somehow, it all feels like a marathon race where everyone is running towards the same direction? (I haven’t run one yet, but aiming to) — and isn’t the point of marathon to torture ourselves for a long time so that we can look back at it towards the end? 🫣 And so… Our new update at Flint today is only the first water stop in a marathon race. 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏼♂️🏃🏻 More exciting things will come! If you are interested in joining us on this marathon (of shaping education), please share Flint with your teachers, schools, organizations, community, parents, or friends 🙏
