Dear Universitians, 


a) WUaS's student application process - add high schooler's name here http://worlduniversityandschool.org/ (emerging from Wikidata, and in conjunction with "You at WUaS" (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/You_at_World_University), is planning for 11 billion people in 2100 and also for all 8k languages, with our first CC undergraduate degree program, first in English, beginning in 2017, with students from around the world applying this autumn. Classes will be in group video + for planning purposes.

b) You'll find the emergent course catalog/courses at WUaS for credit here -
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VRHhXYsk-V9lvSh5onaU2hnEhwoapSN7HyBK1P09LIk/edit?usp=sharing - and with CC MIT OCW in 7 languages (http://ocw.mit.edu/ & http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/) and CC Yale OYC (http://oyc.yale.edu/), where CC WUaS will CC "share" and "adapt" this best STEM CC OpenCourseWare in CC Wikidata.

c) WUaS continues as an wiki (editable web pages) - for open teaching and learning planned in all 7,097 living languages - which will develop in Wikidata/ Wikibase (written for Wikipedia's 358 languages) with AI, machine learning and machine data, and will thus be a very different online university than on-the-ground universities.

d) WUaS plans to create major online CC universities in all ~204 (per the 2008 Olympics) countries' main and official languages, and become the online "Harvard of the Internet" for accrediting university degrees - SB/BA, Ph.D., Law and M.D. as well as I.B. high school. 

Sincerely, 
Scott

I'd like to invite you to WUaS's monthly business meeting this Saturday, July 9th at 9am PT (2nd Saturdays of the month, hour-long and electronically mediated) if you'd like to learn further how WUaS makes decisions, plans and works, and participate in this process. 

This month we'll meet via the Free Conference Call number to participate - (641) 715-3580, access code - 118-021-765 - at 9am Pacific Time.


The agenda for the upcoming Saturday, July 9th2016 WUaS, monthly, business meeting is here - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/07/agenda-announcement-news-for-wuass-july.html

I've attached WUaS's financial report for June 2016 in this WUaS business meeting email. 
World University and School is looking for a new, Board member, for example, to focus on fundraising, and to actually bring in significant monies for WUaS. 

The next, open, hour-long, WUaS, monthly business meeting is on Saturday, August 13th, 2016. 

And this month I'll continue to send out a second email after business meeting with WUaS Minutes. 

You'll also find some previous monthly business meetings (conducted electronically in the manner of F/friends) as examples in Google Hangouts here - http://scottmacleod.com/papers.htm. WUaS's active blog with past monthly business information is here - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com

For people on the sporadic, somewhat frequent, WUaS, email list, or who wish to be, WUaS is posting actively to both the WUaS Google Group (world-university-and-school@googlegroups.com), and the WUaS Yahoo Group (worlduniversityandschool@yahoogroups.com), both of which allow for daily and weekly digests. Please join these groups for daily and weekly digests.  

Concerning this WUaS team email list, we'll generally send out business meeting emails once a month. If you'd like to receive more frequent, sporadic, WUaS emails, please reply to this email telling me so. If you could, please REPLY with UNSUBSCRIBE, or an alternative email address, if you wish NOT to receive WUaS's emails, or receive them in a different email account, - and WUaS would be very grateful. 

World University and School is planning to become the MIT / Harvard / Yale / Stanford / Oxbridge of the Internet, and in all 7,097+ living languages and 204+ countries (in recent Olympics), with online, Creative Commons' licensed MIT OCW-centric, university degrees in large languages.

Free, Creative Commons' licensed, online, wiki WUaS, like Wikipedia with MIT OCW, is planned for all 3,000-8,000 languages and for around 204 countries, with free degrees accrediting on C.C. MIT OpenCourseWare in 7 languages and C.C. Yale OYC+, - and will help many, many people.
