Fertile biomes: "Maintaining Institutional Pension Responsibilities" presentation at Friends Association for Higher Education

As a Bryn Mawr Professor of Economics and as a Friend especially, thanks so much for sharing here your "Maintaining Institutional Pension Responsibilities" presentation at Friends Association for Higher Education in Oregon, which unfortunately I couldn't attend because I was presenting at the same time about World University and School, on the same panel as the great Royce Frazier and Ben Pink Dandelion. 

Concerning your interesting timely presentation in these slides, World University and School will likely seek to offer highest quality socially responsible funds, probably in the large TIAA CREF and Vanguard, with their education to investors, to begin, in order to eventually maintain our pension obligations as we grow, and perhaps  will also highlight the value of socially responsible index-investing to our WUaS employees / participants. It's very helpful to have the structure you outline - thank you.  

And WUaS continues to seek a "WUaS Head of Fundraising and Fiduciary Responsibility" - 

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Head_of_Fundraising_and_Fiduciary_Responsibility - and welcomes your thoughts about this. WUaS has long mentioned seeking a "WUaS Head of Fundraising and Fiduciary Responsibility" also in our WUaS monthly business meeting emails too. I wonder if we might possibly please talk further about some of your ideas about this at some point? 

Friendly-informed CC World University, planning to accredit in most countries' main languages, is a huge undertaking, and hopes to create a significant number of academic jobs in ALL languages, and by beginning to accredit online on CC MIT OCW in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC, and then matriculate students online, eventually seeking monies from governments around the world, for one; see our 6 main business foci - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2015/02/wuass-business-plans-6-foci-updated-in.html. (Although my own finances have never been lower, I think/hope the risks of creating this startup will be well rewarded in terms of remuneration eventually). Your presentation may well help focus such developments. 

I'm glad to say that WUaS should get Federal Work Study (FWS) study Reed College students beginning in September, and become an online host site for FWS through Reed to begin -http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/06/greater-rhea-just-posted-3-new-reed.html - which is one example of progress. It's also an example of one focus of WUaS's business plan - to get on government's education budget lines (although particular these monies won't come directly to WUaS).

Thank you again and hope to see you in Woodbrooke in England next June for the FAHE gathering, as WUaS's finances begin to develop - and perhaps to reach out to young Friends there about free and CC MIT-centric World University and School degree opportunities (baccalaureate, Ph.D., Law and M.D. as well as I.B. high school). 

Friendly regards, 

Scott
