    🆕Working on a big problem this year! Traditional means of evaluating talent and potential aren't just biased, they're fundamentally broken. Here's a sneak peek at the problem we're trying to solve and how we might go about solving it. ⬇️

    Gary’s thinking & teaching about network fluency has inspired me for almost a decade now. Navigating ambiguity, learning in public, building networks: these are critical skills to develop and look for in a hyperconnected world. We’re grateful you’re on our board Gary!

    Continuing to learn about the business models behind college admissions. Newfound appreciation for the mathematical quagmire of sending thousands of offers to kids, a fraction of whom will accept, with a cap on seats and ambitious revenue targets

    Schools didn’t report graduation rates of Pell Grant recipients until 2017. 49% of recipients graduate compared to 67% of non-recipients. 7 of the top 10 graduation rates come from UC schools. UCLA’s student body is 39% recipients; 88% graduate on time.

    The % of Pell-eligible students has become a highly visible way to evaluate the economic diversity of a school. Two unnamed schools admitted students just below the Pell threshold at a 10x rate to those just above it. (Blue = 2008, Yellow = 2016, h/t )

    Grants are not keeping up with inflation or the rising cost of college. The maximum grant now covers 29% of the cost of a four-year public college. (via )

    The federal government awards $30 billion in Pell Grants annually. The maximum amount awarded per student is $6,195. 7.5 million students receive grants. ~80% of recipients come from families with an income less than $40,000.

    made a very useless thing I've been thinking about for a while: a website that randomly generates blackout poetry based on existing poems. enjoy

    Slowly shaking off my confusion between effort and activity; realizing perseverance and resilience often feel agonizingly inert: just “sticking with it” or “hanging in there.” Effort is hard to measure because different stuff is effortful for different people.

    Trying to hunt down something that maybe doesn’t exist. A pretty rigorous survey of all the things a “like” can mean on social media (eg., I want to see this later, I like you, I want you to think of me, etc.) Ring a bell for anyone?
