My name is Chuck Lief and I have the privilege as serving as the president of Naropa University in Boulder Colorado.

It's a joy for me to announce today the establishment of the Chogyam Trungpa Institute at Naropa.

Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, the Tibetan scholar, Buddhist meditation teacher, poet, and artist,

was the founder of Naropa in 1974.

And for the forty four years since the Naropa founding

hundreds of faculty and thousands of students have come together to explore the ways in which we can join

the wisdom of the eastern contemplative traditions with the academic disciplines of the west.

The Chogyam Trungpa Institute will be a place where the impact of his teachings can be

rigorously studied, explored,

new creative forms can arise from that work. It will also serve as an archival repository for

literally thousands of pieces of written material that he created.

Artwork and all sorts of other important artifacts of the remarkable life that he had, specially in the west.

We believe that the work Trungpa Rinpoche did from the time he arrived in North America in 1970

was really instrumental in the creation of what today is called the modern mindfulness movement

and established the strong interest in Buddhist practice I think in the western world.

The establishment of the Chogyam Trungpa Institute at Naropa is only made possible because of the collaboration with many other people.

Notable Mrs. Diana Mukpo who was Trungpa Rinpoche's wife

and who has beautifully and powerfully protected his work and his teachings since his death in 1987.

Were also in close collaboration with Kalapa Media.

Kalapa Media is the publishing arm of Shambhala international.

Which is the Buddhist organization that Trungpa Rinpoche founded when he arrived North America in 1970.

Finally are delighted that a collaboration has taken place

with the Shambhala archives, under the direction of Mrs. Carolyn Gimian.

And not only have we collaborated with Carolyn but we've managed to convince her

to step in as the first executive director of the Chogyam Trungpa Institute.

Something I'm sure that will lead to great success as we establish the work here in Boulder Colorado.

I wanna thank everyone for your interest in the Chogyam Trungpa Institute,

and look forward with sharing information with you over the coming months.

I invite you to hear so coming remarks from Mrs. Diana Mukpo and Mrs. Carolyn Gimian

who will talk about the Chogyam Trungpa Institute from their points of view.

Thank you very much!

On behalf of the Mukpo family I would like to express our happiness.

That finally we have been able to create a repository of Trungpa's Rinpoches teachings at Naropa University.

When Trungpa Rinpoche decided to found Naropa

Which was initially an institute and then became the first Buddhist inspired university in the United States.

He

wanted to model it on the great Nalanda Univeristy in India .

and then he decided that would be too arrogant to actually use that name

but he wanted to found it on the same principles as Nalanda.

and therefore called in Naropa.

and

almost thirty one years now after his death

we have a repository where we can

house many of his works and also create an educational system where we can

educate more editors, because we still have a lot of unpublished material.

I think he would of been so happy that this

had happened at Naropa

because of the purity of the intention

of this educational organization that his teachings would remain in their purest form.

And also be accessible for people from generations to come.

It is extremely timely that those people who are now getting older who are his students

can still have the influence

to make sure this is done appropriately for the benefit of future generations.

People who will come after us

who never had the opportunity to know him and receive his teachings.

But can still have that benefit from the work that is being done at Naropa.

Hello I am Carolyn Gimian the newly appointed director of the Chogyam Trungpa Institue here at Naropa University.

I am delighted and honored to be able to shepherd this project for the next few years as it gets going.

For me the Chogyam Trungpa Institute is the culmination of about thirty plus years of work in archiving,

and preserving his

teachings in all their forms.

And now the institute is providing the opportunity to go from that activity to focusing more on access to the material

and to expand the audience of those who are interested in his teaching and in the man himself.

One of our first projects will be an online platform for his teachings, which were calling CHELA

The Chogyam Trungpa Electronic Library and Archive.

And that's made up of audio, video, transcriptions, so that we can have captioning of the audio and video also

photographs and many other artifacts that it will include.

So I'm really looking forward to that and that will really expand the audience.

We want to be sure that this is done in a way that

is not just data driven but also really audience based, so it speaks to people.

The Chogyam Trungpa Institute has the support of the Trungpa Rinpoches family.

It is also being supported by the Shambhala archives

and by the Allen Ginsberg Library here at Naropa. And many other organizations.

So I'm really pleased that so many people are supporting it and I think its important to be a collaborative effort.

And I'd like to invite all of you to join us and help

this institute realize it's potential.

Thank you!

#MakingHistory – Alumna Felicia Evans Long – University of Phoenix - #BlackHistoryMonth - Duration: 1:43.

[Slowly building music]

[energetic music]

Are you excited to be here?

(Kids) Yes!!!

Can I get a high-five?

Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo! Yeah! Awesome sauce!

Candy and Sweet Treats have always been a passion of mine.

Growing up, in the projects with my mom and my older brother,

at the age of eight, I was selling candies and all types of

confectionary goodies out of our mom's house.

So when people now see Sweet Candy Café they always say

Felicia, it's no surprise that you have a candy store.

I went back to school because I always wanted my master's degree

and the MBA was definitely the springboard in teaching us how

to set up a small business.

I think it's really important for young girls to see

strong female leaders.

because it shows them that, you know, I can do this.

I can be anything that I want to be.

I started the Candy Kids Wear Blazers program

to teach young girls about entrepreneurship

and professionalism.

Every girl is given a business blazer,

and we teach them the various things that it takes

to actually become a business owner,

but in a kid-friendly way.

(Girl) Hello, my name is Riley, welcome to Sweet Candy Café.

They are our next generation. They're our future.

To me black history month is about achievement, and

making history is about making a difference in my community.

It's about leaving a mark.

It's about making a change in the right direction.

Innovation and Leadership Program at Southern Oregon University - Duration: 4:24.

My Name is Moneeka Settles and I am the program coordinator for the Innovation and Leadership

degree here at SOU.

This degree was designed specifically for working professionals who have some college

credits completed and are looking for a way to finish their degree.

They have been in the working world and they come together in a cohort fashion, thus bringing

so much incredible information to the classroom, and camaraderie and connection; it's a pretty

amazing experience.

One of the aspects that has surprised me the most about the Innovation and Leadership program,

and how it's bettering my life, is the network that I'm growing.

This is a collection of driven, connected, motivated people in the Rogue Valley, and

I am loving growing a network with each of these people, and learning what projects they're

doing, what organizations they're into.

I truthfully have treated most every Tuesday that I come to class as a job interview, because

there's a good chance that one of my classmates may be interviewing me someday.

This degree is specifically chosen coursework that is aimed at helping folks that are in

the program in their workplaces, so we pick coursework that is going to be beneficial

to their working world. I can't tell you the number of times students have told me that

they use the ideas from the program day in and day out.

Just in my professional world, every single course, whether I thought I knew a lot about

it or not, from marketing and business acumen I've been able to take a lot of snippets from

the courses that I've learned and apply them instantly back into my professional world.

It's wonderful the ways in which this degree has been designed in conjunction with the

businesses in this valley.

We designed the degree after listening to what businesses were eager to have in their

employees, and we recognize that some employers in this valley will pay for their employees

to go back to school and finish their degree, so to watch that mutual support from both

the work side and the academic side, is pretty exciting.

My name's Adam Korth, and I am a trainer here at Rogue Credit Union. I've been with the

credit union now for about six years.

When I first found that INL program, looking at the course structure, seeing the types

of things we were learning, I really just felt like the courses were built for me.

I love psychology, I love business, I love communications, and that's really three of

the big pillars of what INL is.

If you're someone out in the working world who is looking to complete your bachelor's

degree in order to get the promotion, in order to make sure you can apply for that next job

with confidence, or just to build your skills in the working world, I recommend that you

come and talk to us about how your credits transfer and take a look at the list of courses.

I think you'll see that the wide variety of coursework really speaks to rounding out the

leaders that we have in this valley already and the leaders that everyone wants to be

in their workplaces.

I also think that, had I completed my degree twenty years ago, there's so much now that's

new, relevant to the world, in marketing that I never would have had that opportunity.

I feel like being the non-traditional student and going back at this age, I'm learning way

more than I would've back then.

It's never too late to reach for your dreams, I highly recommend jumping if you have a little

bit of a glint, of a hope, of reaching that degree some day.

There's never an easier way to get it.

I am so grateful I decided to do this in my life right now because I don't want to wait

another minute to be the person I want to be, and I believe that the tools that I'm

gaining in my tool belt from this coursework will aid me no matter what direction I choose

to go.

This is great, it just it really gives you that opportunity to get back and it's made

a reality out of being able to go back to school that I didn't think I was going to

be able to have.

The fact that Moneeka works as hard as she does with us, I just feel really strongly

that this has helped me to get back and get that bachelor's degree that I've always wanted to get.

How we think about disability - Duration: 1:57.

The problem for me is not so much what is disability, it's more like the idea of

normal, so kind of disabled people are positioned as being extra normal or

outside of the realms of acceptable personhood or what makes a human. And

interestingly, sort of from the 1970s and 80s onwards, disability activists

kind of really did something really interesting around the language of

disability and there was a group who

articulated a social model of disability and this

separated the notion of disability and impairment. And I think that was it's

similar to how you think about what feminists had done with sex and gender.

So disability what they said was disability is a form of social

oppression it's a socially imposed restriction and the idea is that if you

created a society that was inclusive and supportive of everybody's diverse body

of mind then you would find the experience of disability as a form of

social oppression would dissipate. It doesn't say that disability doesn't

exist, it says that impairment is the is the kind of body diversity or the the

mind diversity and that's a kind of a key point to make about that.

Mentoring by Jacimaria Batista, University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Duration: 1:11.

Just being a mentor in general is very rewarding because you see the person

growing. You see the students arriving as a freshman where they even don't know

how to enter your office you know they are afraid to enter the office and then

you see when they are seniors or when there PhD students start and then was

unsure and then they are arguing with you. When they argue with you, you know

you got it. You know so now they know as much and more than you and then you see

them graduating and you see them going out and getting a job and improving

their family. So being a mentor mainly in a state like Nevada it's very important

because we need more educated people and education change life. It changed my own

life and I know it changed the life of many people. I had graduated over 70

graduate students and I know it changed their lives because they keep in touch

with me, so I know what's going on they had changed to better.

Mentoring by Robert Boehm, PhD, University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Duration: 1:31.

(bright ding)

- In our project, we have quite a bit of

student kinds of activities

and these come in a variety of forms.

First of all, we have a very large number

of graduate students who are involved in the project

and they're going to be our leaders

in a lot of these topics in the years to come.

So some of them are working on the water part of it,

some of them are working on the environmental part,

and some of them are working on the solar part.

And I mention the solar part in my comments.

But we also have a number of undergraduate students

who are working too in various parts of this program

and we even have some students, I have some students

who are from international locations

who have come to work at our location here

just to be involved with us.

We have students who are fresh our of high school

who are wanting to get their feet wet,

sort of speak, with research

and are eagerly working on some projects that we have here.

So we have students of all forms, really,

who are working our projects

and I think that's one of the

real positive aspects of the project, is making

researchers more knowledgeable

to be handling a lot of the developments of the future.

Mentoring by Danielle Nobles-Lookingbill, PhD Student, University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Duration: 0:54.

I really feel like the NSF EPSCoR project in the way that it's designed we

have annual meetings we also have been encouraged as graduate students to meet

and get to know each other and I feel like research is always

moving forward but the way that we do that best is by working together. I think

that's the most important thing that the EPSCoR project brings is those

collaborations with your peers your colleagues mentors it even brings you

closer to the mentors and advisors that also work on the project.

Mentoring by Thomas Harris, PhD, University of Nevada, Reno - Duration: 1:15.

I've been a mentor many times with students.

It's very rewarding.

Too, this is about like twenty years after you do it,

you find out they're leaders in the state

or in their business, which has happened many times,

but it's also that it's very rewarding,

they keep you young.

They're very handy, and when I can give 'em my iPhone,

they make this work,

but the other things that they're very good

is that they're very inquisitive.

We've been very fortunate though and the

two people who have been working with me on this one

are very much interested in solar and clean energy.

In fact we had a clean energy,

a climate change seminar here

and one of the students, Angelou Sisteen,

helped develop that.

And so that's information that's kinda interesting.

All of them have been very active and interested

in using this and hopefully they'll be gaining tools

that they can use if more solar

energy opportunities come for employment.

Bucknell University: The Food - Duration: 1:30.

Here at Bucknell, the food

kind of brings you together.

It's an integral part of a student's life.

I was definitely surprised to see

all the different options that

an average student can have.

The Bison, the Café and up at the Library

and back by senior apartments.

They have the omelet station,

and fruits, and veggies,

and the stir-fry.

What I'm getting is healthy

and it tastes good.

There is always a place that's open

and knowing that there's different places

all over campus is important

because the options that would

promote your focus and your energy

knowing that that's available to you

is definitely better for being a student.

A lot of the students

choose those healthy options for themselves

instead of it being forced upon them

and that creates a culture of healthy living.

Mentoring by Erica Marti, PhD, University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Duration: 0:38.

- Mentoring undergraduate students has been

a really interesting and important part of my role.

So helping them to understand more about how to get a job

and what skills are important and getting them excited

as they engage younger students,

who are then going to follow their career path.

It's been a really rewarding part

of being a mentor for the students.

Mentoring by Dale Devitt, PhD, University of Nevada, Las Vegas - Duration: 1:10.

- Well, one of the great things about the NSFF score,

of course, it's an infrastructure grant,

and so it did provide equipment,

but it also provided an assistantship.

PhD assistantship.

So, that was enough to get me excited to be a participant.

And so I was very fortunate to

convince Lorenzo Apodaca to take on this project as his PhD.

He'll actually be taking his qualifying exams in September.

He finishes his field research,

here at the end of the summer,

so he's within a year probably of finishing his PhD.

So I'm quite excited for him.

The idea then, would be, can we continue on

and bring in more graduate students?

So that's part of the long-term goal.

And so I think with the West Texas study,

we'd look for graduate student participation,

and even in the Valley Electric up in Pahrump.

The NSF EPSCoR program overall has tremendously impacted my education. I got

my master's degree here at UNLV under the last EPSCoR program we had which

studied climate change and so my project was to look at how climate change

potentially impacted plant communities up in Northern Nevada and so I got my

master's degree and then about a year after I graduated with that Dr. Devitt

came back to me with another opportunity this time to look at environmental

issues associated with solar energy.

What Al-Azhar University teach in its curricula about Jihad - English subtitles - Duration: 1:04.

The most dangerous issue is the islamic curricula that are taught in Al-Azhar University which adopt what is more dangerous that's the '' offensive Jihad '' that's when Muslims go out to wage Jihad against non-Muslims in order to spread '' monotheism '' and remove the polytheism and spread Islam

exactly ! meaning waging Jihad against non-Muslim to spread Islam and that's not for self defense .... none of that ; not because the non-Muslims attack Muslims rather , just because the non-Muslims are infidels !

and classifying people as infidels only in the curricula of Al-Azhar University requires that Muslims should take up their arms and go out to fight against the infidels so that monotheism will prevail !

so , offensive Jihad is being taught in the curricula of Al-Azhar University ? yes , the offensive Jihad is being taught in all the curricula of Al-Azhar , and even Islam Al-Behairy ( Muslim writer ) mentioned that and so did Ahmed Maher etc...

and that jurisprudence has been the same for the last fourteen centuries and it has never been changed in Egypt ! it has never been changed ; so accordingly , the Christians and all other non-Muslims are viewed as infidels and [ they should be fought ] against until the whole religion is for Allah ( 8:39)

and also so that monotheism will prevail and to eradicate the polytheism from the Earth , and they say that Islam has only and solely come to eradicate the polytheism !
