Learn to understand and tackle problems from many different points of view. Discussions should highlight business goals, success metrics, technical capabilities and potential challenges, and relevant user research.

New College Socratic Stage:

A Discussion on Crime in the 21st Century

Join us for an engaging discussion on Crime in the 21st Century with Dr. Wilfred Reilly and Steve Sailer, moderated by Dr. Mark Bauerlein.


The panel will explore the paradoxical effects of various movements and examine how periods of heightened activism correlated with increased crime rates. This discussion will shed light on lesser-known consequences, such as the indirect impact on public safety when law enforcement presence diminishes.

The Minimal NYC

Introducing The Minimal NYC. An app that connects you to people who are willing to trade lives. For real. Ever wonder what it’d be like to be a music teacher in Nashville? A children’s book illustrator in Brooklyn? A human rights activist in DC?


It’s a social network that facilitates real life swaps: you go to someone’s city, live in their home, hang with their friends and family, do their jobs, attend their events and activities. Yes, it’s totally intense… and it’s totally thrilling. Call us crazy, but we don’t think the best memories are made in the comfort zone.

 
Come check us out at the party (and sign up for The Minimal NYC account at one of our stations while you’re at it). Bottom line: it’s a startup launch. Good times will be had by all.

Speakers

Dr. Wilfred Reilly

Speaker

Wilfred Reilly is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University, and the author of the books "Taboo: 10 Facts You Can't Talk About,' "Hate Crime Hoax," and "The $50,000,000 Question." Reilly has published pieces in PNAS, Academic Questions, Commentary, Quillette, and a number of other journals and magazines. His research interests include international relations and the prevention of war, contemporary American race relations, and the use of modern quantitative methods to test "sacred cow" theories such as the existence of widespread white privilege. Off work, he enjoys dogs, archery, basketball, Asian cooking, and beer. Reilly has been described, by himself, as "the greatest mind of a generation."

Steve Sailer

 

Speaker

Steve Sailer is an opinion journalist focusing on the major controversies of the age, such as crime, immigration, feminism, transgenderism, the Great Awokening, the Racial Reckoning, and human biodiversity. His willingness to follow the findings of both the human sciences and his lying eyes to their inconvenient implications has made him one of the more controversial and influential commentators of the era. His ideas, while seldom explicitly cited, are read and pondered by America’s leading public intellectuals on both the right and the left. Known for the notoriety and reasonableness of his trenchant insights and the normality of his personality, he lives in his native suburban Southern California. His new anthology Noticing is available from Passage Press and Amazon, while his Substack is at SteveSailer.Net.

Dr. Marvin Dunn

Speaker

Dr. Marvin Dunn, a native Floridian, is Professor Emeritus and retired Chairman of the Department of Psychology at Florida International University. Born during the Jim Crow era, he brings a perspective to black history that has been missed, distorted and minimalized in the past. He co- authored The Miami Riot of 1980: Crossing the Bounds (1984), authored Black Miami in the Twentieth Century (1997), A History of Florida Through Black Eyes (2016) and The Kingsleys (2022). 


Dr. Dunn established Roots in the City, an inner-city gardening program and founded the Dr. Marvin Dunn Academy for Community Education, a Miami-Dade public high school for at- risk youth. He is the president of the Miami Center for Racial Justice, a non-profit organization based at Barry University and dedicated to preserving and sharing the history of blacks in Florida.


Dr. Dunn appears regularly on local and national television broadcasts, providing insight on race issues in America.  He has been published in major newspapers and he is a nationally respected scholar, author, historian and community activist in race and ethnic relations. He lives in Miami Florida. 


Much of his work can be found at dunnhistory.com

Define

Jessica Annas Defines the User Journey

We’re capturing more data than ever before. And we’re doing it more precisely. But we’re still not using data to its full potential. Used well, numbers can teach us about each other, inspire our creativity and help us take risks and innovate in our work.

12:00pm

Diverge

Ashton Ajayi Discusses Diverge Methods

Ashton Ajayi of Pixel Palace will explain how marketers can use our insights and knowledge about the customer to influence and improve the bigger business strategy.

Decide

Chris Logan Reviews Decide Methods

Everyone’s focusing on it, but it’s not a focused word. What does it mean exactly? Why does it matter? And how do we do it right? Attend small group workshops about mobile ads, mobile responsive site and mobile app development. 

“Design is not making beauty, beauty emerges from selection, affinities, integration, love.”
