to ahesse, me
Hi Amy,
Thanks for your email. How about Brian Martin MD as interviewee? He was to your right in the RCA session on the 14th September (where I was to your left). I'd be interested in cultivating further diversity in these regards re Reed RCA interviews (as well as re possible WUaS related collaborative explorations). I appreciate Brain's knowledge, smarts and communication skills. My interviewing can be found here - https://youtube.com/user/WorldUnivandSch and http://scottmacleod.com/papers.htm - to begin. There's one with an undergraduate student, Tanya, in CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School's first matriculating class that's fairly recent. And from about 2013, there are some startup board WUaS conversations, one or two with Gerd Moe-Behrens in Germany, who's interested in synthetic biology, and is also an Apple developer. (I began this wiki subject - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Synthetic_Biology - with Gerd in mind actually, and have only added a very few MIT OCW courses; there are probably further courses to add as well, for ex.!). Interviewing Gerd newly could have merit, for example. Chris Garrett could be interesting to interview as well in these regards (from the Reed Legal Network Panel we both attended). I've mostly e-interviewed in Google Hangouts recording to Youtube, but Google group video Hangouts recently closed, so I'm seeking new video-conferencing to Youtube recording opportunities. The audio of video-conferencing and Youtube is fine in my experience, if one's not recording music (which I've done eg here - https://www.youtube.com/user/sgkmacleod - not as interviews, but I'd be interested in exploring recording career-related interviews with musicians making music as well - and together over the internet). I'd welcome guidance in all these regards as well.
Here too are some related wiki subject pages at WUaS, in various stages of development which might be helpful to the RCA:
Finding / Creating a Job You Really Love: https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Finding_/_creating_a_job_you_really_love

Volunteers at WUaS: https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Volunteers
WUaS Job Hunting: https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/WUaS_Job_hunting
And I just updated the "World University and School Links" section here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Career_counseling - with the above.
Yes, I'd be interested in joining the Reed RCA call tomorrow (at this email address - info@worlduniversityandschool.org) to learn more about what the RCA is about and where it's heading. Would be interested in exploring interviewing especially re Reed-World University and School collaboration potentials. Here's one place we could add interviews - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Career_counseling (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects). Will you be in this call?
Very nice to have met and shared some meetings / ideas together at Reed FAR recently as well.
Best regards, Scott

Scott,
Thank you so much for attending the Reed Career Alliance (RCA) open session at the Forum for Advancing Reed (FAR), and for expressing interest in the Reed Career Conversations podcast project! We generated a lot of great ideas from your input, and look forward to implementing many of them.
I realize it's short notice, but we are having an RCA committee call tomorrow, Thursday, September 26, from 4-5pm PDT (7-8pm EDT). If you would like to join us, please respond to this email and I'll add you to the calendar invite. Also let me know if you'd like to be added to the RCA listserv, so you'll be included in any future RCA communications or meetings.
If you would like to get involved in the podcast project, please respond to this email and let me know how you'd like to participate. I will add you to our committee for the podcast project, and be sure to include you in any podcast-related calls or emails. Any great ideas for people who should be interviewed? Would you like to interview them? Do you have experience with producing podcasts, or any technical skills in audio? Ideas for where and how we could promote the podcast series? Let us know!
Thank you for your interest in RCA and the Reed Career Conversations podcast project. I enjoyed meeting you at FAR, and hope to continue the conversation!
Best regards,
Amy

Outgrowing God, with an Oxford theology atheist student interviewer - much NtF relevance

Dear Non-theist Friends / NtFs,
The Oxford theology atheist student interviewer here is a sophisticated educated philosopher ... very interesting and British interview with Richard Dawkins, about his new book:
Outgrowing God.
Unusually penetrating interview. He’s an atheist studying theology at Oxford – as is not hard to guess.

Dear NtFs,
They're both brilliant -
Richard Dawkins | Outgrowing God | On Atheism, Ethics, and Theology
https://youtu.be/tsLEf1Uwb5o
- and while Alex O'Connor is from Oxford and is now going to Oxford as a Ph.D. student, Richard Dawkins is from Kenya, Africa, but seemingly from Oxford too, is an emeritus Oxford fellow, and was an Oxford professor as well. Am particularly interested in their communication style, as well as their analysis of culture anthropologically, yet also a kind of non-theist yet theologically-centric kind of British analysis - re moral questions non atheistically and evolutionarily addressed.
They're non-theist yet theologically-centric, I'll call this, seeming to echo an approach Os Cresson and John Hunter and others here have brought up with regards to NtFs at FGC next year.
They seem further to legitimize somehow societally non-theism, but from a British perspective. Not sure what "society" - possibly intellectually here but more broadly as well - means in America these days. :)
Tweeted about this with some #NtF hash tags -

NtFs,
Dawkins lived in Berkeley for a year or two around 1976, was a researcher - appreciating the radical hippy way of thinking that comes through pretty often in his communications - atheist evolution, NtF-wise.
Scott
PS
I don't lnow if he ever made it up to Harbin Hot Springs, but it wouldn't surprise me. UC Berkeley Anthropology professor emeritus Nelson Graburn, also English, at Berkeley since 1964, wrote the Forward to my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" actual-virtual comparative anthropology (and Rosemary Coffey edited the first 1.5 of 9 chapters - thanks again), and Dawkins and Graburn are Berkeley birds of a feather ...

Dear NtFs,
It turns out Richard Dawkins lived in Berkeley from 1967-1969 (not around 1976) - a very heightened time after the free speech movement (64-65), and a time I'm interested academically, as well as in a realistic virtual earth for history - (and Dawkins wrote his significant book "The Selfish Gene" in 1976):
"From 1967 to 1969, he was an assistant professor of zoology at the University of California, Berkeley. During this period, the students and faculty at UC Berkeley were largely opposed to the ongoing Vietnam War, and Dawkins became involved in the anti-war demonstrations and activities.[46] He returned to the University of Oxford in 1970 as a lecturer. In 1990, ..."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Dawkins
(I was a Reader at UC Berkeley in 2000-2001).
Not sure what Dawkins is referring to in his Twitter profile -
" .... RTs don't imply endorsement, nor exhaustive research of tweeter's CV"
https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins
... but I'm adding my CV below :)

Am glad my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" book is in this Anthropology library's collection - and thanks again for writing its 'Forward.'
I'd be interested in teaching a course on actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnography - and perhaps at both Berkeley (as well as UCSB - online?)
