HOT STUFF!

 

"If you're not living on the EDGE,
then you're taking up too much space!"

"Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine"

"We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems."--Lee Iococca

"If it feels like you've got everything under control,
then you're not driving fast enough!"--Mario Andretti

 

"Motorola no longer wants to hire engineers with a four year degree. Instead, we want our employees [teachers, students] to have a 40 year degree."
An employee [teacher, student] now must expect to continually reinvent his/her knowledge base. Increasingly, learning and work are becoming the same thing and they are happening in the workplace rather than in the classroom.

---from Corporate Universities by Jeanne C. Meister, McGraw Hill as exerpted in the T.H.E. Journal Vol 26, #3. October '98 "Forging Partnerships with Institutions of Higher Education"
