Dear Ma, Pin, Susan, Larry Viehland and Ed Smyth MD above All,

Just drafted this accreditation email and will send you it from its own thread tomorrow. Also I reached out to the Carnegie Library in Oakland earlier about a WUaS Co-Working Space ... kind of in the whole library variously place-wise and see email to Jen Styran  styranj@carnegielibrary.org at bottom.

There is a webinar on Monday 9/12/22 at 1pm regarding a step in the accreditation process with the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (and I would change the time of the WUaS News and Q & A , with 2 vice presidents, one who's from Missouri -

And it looks MISCHE they are changing regarding Distance Education - 



Guidelines>Important Information Regarding Distance Education Regulatory Changes




Module One – Introduction to MSCHE and Accreditation

The Middle States Commission on Higher Education is recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education to conduct accreditation and pre-accreditation (candidacy status) activities for institutions of higher education in Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, including distance education and correspondence education programs offered at those institutions ... 




The DE-FAQs can be accessed here, on the Policies Tab, or on the COVID information page.

AND accreditation with MISCHE could cost as much as with WASC SENIOR AND BPPE 


Could I invite you both or charge you to accredit Work World University and School and with Middle States' Commission on Higher Education, Larry and Kim Claudia Viehland?

Dear Jen,

Greetings from CC-4 OCW.MIT.EDU -centric Wiki WorldUniversityAndSchool.org. I'm writing to inquire about the possibility of Co-Working Space at the Carnegie library in Oakland. I'm glad to write that Richard, the manager today there, gave me your email address and I'm following up with you about this.

WorldUniversityAndSchool.org actually began in the Carnegie Library in Oakland in 2006 or 2007, when I was living here for 2 years, (while my father was impaired and then passed away). I gave a public talk about Work World University and School in the Carnegie library to a few people, mostly from the Pittsburgh QuakerQuaker Friends' Meeting in Shady Side. (I also went to high school in Pittsburgh PA in the 1970s, and am moving back to Pittsburgh to be in the area with my mother).

I'm moving back to Pittsburgh from the SF BAY AREA, California, and now with startup WorldUniversityAndSchool.org as 3 legal entities, a 501 c 3 federal tax exempt charity legal entity, and 2 legal entities in California.

I'm wondering if I could please hold a WUaS Co-Working Space in various places in the Carnegie Library in Oakland, let people in Pittsburgh PA know about this, and occasionally hold 1-1 meetings in the small pods that Richard mentioned or the meeting spaces / rooms on the 2nd floor with open ceilings, - and very quietly due to audibility issues.

World University and School seeks to offer (due to OCW.MIT.EDU MIT OCW's Creative Commons 4 licensing, and CC-4 LICENSED 'CS FIRST WITH GOOGLE AT WUaS' programming language projects and courses) Free-to-students' online WUAS Bachelor PhD Law MD IB degrees, eventually in each of all 200 countries in the world, and in their main languages, but first in English beginning with Bachelor degrees from home. WUaS is still very much a startup, and has no money to speak of whatsoever, but is optimistic that this will develop now that THESE 3 legal entities are coming full circle and finally have engagement from the state of California 's Franchise Tax Board and the US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT as a 501 c 3.

Thank you for your consideration of this WUaS Co-Working Space request and I look forward to exploring this possibility further with you soon.

Thank you again,
Scott

Dear Ma, Pin, Susan, Larry Viehland, and Ed Smyth MD above, All, 

In a Co-Working Space, in addition to exploring this new accreditation opportunity with Middle States' Commission on Higher Education re Asylum journey across the country and in Pennsylvania now, but newly online post Coronavirus Meme Pandemic and self-quarantine too, I think WUaS Corporation may be getting into the Data Center business (in addition to listing Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency free money daily and on the new Silicon Valley long-term stock exchange), and the ending poverty business world wide too potentially, and see these Tweets this morning - 


Thnx @neha @mitDCI for timely @sciam #Anthro art. Re @WorldUnivAndSch planning to code for 7.9 billion people each a #WikidataPIN # to #EndPoverty https://minepi.com/sgkmac WUaS to develop #DataCenters #RealisticVirtualHarbin /EarthforSTEM distributed in 200 countries re 7151 Langs






Digging through old email and following a windy path to find this fascinating work by @cloudAnthro on the anthropology of datacenters and the people who make them work: scientificamerican.com/article/the-st… and 


Thank you for engaging with my work Neha! I see that we are MIT kindred. Perhaps we can connect in-person the next time I am campus. I would love to hear about your research at CSAIL.



The Staggering Ecological Impacts of Computation and the Cloud
The cloud is not only material but also an ecological force

By Steven Gonzalez Monserrate, 
The MIT Press Reader on March 1, 2022

"Some have proposed relocating data centers to Nordic countries like Iceland or Sweden, in a bid to utilize ambient, cool air to minimize carbon footprint, a technique called “free cooling.” However, network signal latency issues make this dream of a haven for green data centers largely untenable to meet the computing and data storage demands of the wider world."

Dear Ma, Pin, Susan, Larry Viehland, and Ed Smyth MD above, All, 

Susan, soon after our emails exchange yesterday - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/09/mountain-laurel-kalmia-latifolia.html -
an invitation to attend the Shady Side Academy homecoming came in - 
https://events.veracross.com/ssa/34-homecoming. (There's only one event free I could have signed up for really,band I'll hang out with friends otherwise, and maybe even go to the football game (if) on Saturday afternoon). Not sure about signing up further for the Memorial service on Sunday yet or not.

I've signed up beginning Friday 10/14 at noon (and Gene Deal was a faculty member when I was there). I don't think I have ever been to my high school's Homecoming.... Am a bit of a rebel then and now I think. :)

It occurs to me that the Shady Side Academy senior school could accredit with the Middle States' Commission on Higher Education, and that they might even have accreditation writers in the wings.

So having found this event tomorrow - 
to meet these folks, I've signed up for this (and it's free too).

Am curious how people from these groups will potentially join the WUaS Co-Working space band too!

Am wondering again what steps the Pittsburgh QuakerQuaker Meeting is taking with regards to protecting people innocents kids women men and victims and from even C-J purveyors, offenders, pedophiles and perpetrators... and haven't gotten a read on this yet... Am still alive and in calling for abolition of the illegal drug and the sex industries internationally and their latent networks of violence, and somewhat (dramatically?) living in Pittsburgh PA now. Am wondering too how state of California and federal government legal processes working together with state senator's office in Orinda in district 7 are protecting people innocents or whether Canyon may me needing international law and law enforcement help regarding possibly kinds of organized crime circles. Abolition has helped and will helped protect a lot of people, over the centuries even! 

Warmly Hugs 
Scott
