Dear President Kim and Secretary Rice,
Thanks for your edifying and excellent talk at Stanford last Tuesday - Human Capital and Technology: Building the New Social Contract ... https://events.stanford.edu/events/804/80416/ - on October 2, 2018.
As an anthropologist too, the question I wanted to follow up with is how best to create wiki online CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric universities that facilitate peoples in each of all ~200 countries' official and main languages growing their flourishing education from their cultural and linguistic backgrounds? In developing wiki World University and School, which is like Wikipedia in ~300 languages and CC-4 MIT OCW in 5 languages, WUaS seeks to create online major universities in each of all ~200 countries' official languages for free-to-students' Bachelor, Ph.D., law, M.D. and I.B. high school degrees, and also wiki schools in all 7,097 living languages for open teaching and learning online. In doing so, WUaS would like to create as many jobs as Walmart, so around 2.2 million jobs (with educational services' stores plus much more), but also make possible countries to build on, and flourish with, their own educational strengths wiki-wise, and in conversation with CC-4 MIT OCW to be translated into ~200 nation states' languages.
As a starting place, Korean MIT OCW is here - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/korean/ (accessible from https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/) but not yet for online degrees. And here is Korea World Univ & Sch - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Korea,_Republic_of_(South_Korea) - not yet in the Korean language (accessible from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States). And here is Korean language WUaS - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Korean_language - also not yet in the Korean language (accessible from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Korean_language). See too the wiki Subjects' page at WUaS - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - for an idea of how people in their countries could create their own subjects in their own languages about what they love, or find valuable or fascinating. WUaS also has a specific focus on each of the countries in Africa - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - seeking to create the online Stanfords / MITs / Oxbridges of the Internet in each of these countries' official and main languages for degrees (and indeed in all of their languages as wiki schools).
How might we best follow up further on some of these questions? Thank you again for your great talk and discussion.
All the best, Scott

Meeting with Professor Rice
Dear Professor Rice,
I'm emailing to ask if we might please meet together to talk about World University and School? World University and School is like CC Wikipedia in ~ 300 languages with best STEM CC OpenCourseWare (and accrediting on CC MIT OCW in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC), and planning to develop in CC Wikidata/Wikibase.
Startup CC WUaS would like to create major online universities in each of all countries' main and official languages, and wiki schools in all 7,943 languages for open teaching and learning, and thus also seek to create potentially a million academic and related online jobs in all languages. WUaS seeks to become the Stanford / Harvard of the Internet and offer free CC online BA/BS, Ph.D., law, M.D. degrees, as well as I.B. high school degrees (again in all ~200 countries' main languages). WUaS is also planning a commercial for-profit wing to complement our Creative Commons' Core non-profit wing around these 14 planned revenue streams - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html. I would like to seek your guidance about a number of World University and School development and international issues.
At Stanford yesterday, I was encouraged by your receptionist, Jewels, to seek an appointment, and she gave me this email address.
Might it be possible please to meet together at Stanford as early as next week, if you will be on campus?
Thank you.
Sincerely, Scott

Hi All,
thanks and interesting, John. Not having heard back from anyone about a possible online NtF Meeting, and after your online Quaker Meeting with a Quaker retreat in California, am focusing on developing a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs and for online NtF Quaker Meeting concurrently (with the benefits of warm water in our bath tubs for deeper even still centering down, and re the parallels I find with soaking in the Harbin warm pool, and with Friends' Meeting in a Meeting House). It isn't possible yet to go into virtual Harbin but please visit the Harbin gate in Google Street View here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ where you can "walk" down the road '4 miles' to Middletown and 'amble' around the streets there, if inclined.
Will post this here as well - https://plus.google.com/u/2/+MeetingWorldUniversityFriends - for ease of accessing the address in the future (Meeting World University Friends
Friendly greetings, Scott

Hi NtFs (& ArQs - areligious Quakers re NtFs:),
Here's the URL for this post about potential NtF Meeting in the future - https://plus.google.com/u/2/+MeetingWorldUniversityFriends/posts/DGfshSJk7YF - in a virtual Harbin Hot Springs - accessible from your home - from your living room (or bath tub!). Traveling to Harbin to soak is part of the fun, but perhaps we can figure out how to add a travel component ... a bit like walking to an on-the-ground Quaker Meeting.
Friendly greetings, Scott
