Jane Park
4:20 PM
hi mick!

me
4:20 PM
Like taxis in NYC and San Fran for accreditation

Jane Park
4:23 PM
i pick the alternative whatever it is
there is no more need for travel agents

Vanessa Gennarelli
4:24 PM
Can I just say that I love everything about this metaphor

Dirk Uys
4:24 PM
atm universities are more like a metro

Jane Park
4:24 PM
+1 dirk

Leah MacVie
4:25 PM
Agreed V-, it's like being walked through a future vacation.

Jane Park
4:25 PM
well... it could also be more like hospitality club right

me
4:25 PM
you make a movie with Ethan Hawke

Leah MacVie
4:25 PM
haha,a little romance...

Erika Pogorelc
4:26 PM
Philipp should be in sales, I wanna go to pri
Paris now

Vanessa Gennarelli
4:26 PM
Philipp is in sales 
he is p2pu's biggest fan

Jane Park
4:26 PM
i don't think interrail is enough

Erika Pogorelc
4:27 PM
awesome I am buyin

Jane Park
4:27 PM
interrail + hospitality club
which i never used!

Billy Meinke
4:28 PM
haha, so good

Leah MacVie
4:28 PM
I think it's a good framing....I like it, but there are many internal things having to deal with formal education and accreditation that need to be worked out: for one, how do the grades tie into the same system? Is the work on the institution to 'credit' these informal learning experiences?

Jane Park
4:28 PM
so we're talking about undergrand univ experience?
b/c i feel like a lot of that is also very US centric

Dirk Uys
4:29 PM
hand

Jane Park
4:29 PM
maybe everyone should just skip that exp and go to grad school

Philipp Schmidt
4:29 PM
for me, the inter-rail metaphor works for the German university experience as well.

Jane Park
4:30 PM
do german universities have frats?
were you eve rin one philipp? 

Philipp Schmidt
4:31 PM
i was in a frat, but never at a university

Jane Park
4:31 PM
and what about small colleges?
liberal arts
which is very dif from universities
are those enveloped under "unviersities" as well?

Philipp Schmidt
4:32 PM
@Jane - yes, i'm lumping it all together
small liberal arts is more like inter-rail

Jane Park
4:32 PM
i would say its more than interrail.. much more handholding and guidance

Philipp Schmidt
4:32 PM
hand

Jane Park
4:34 PM
15 years in informational technology time?

Leah MacVie
4:34 PM
Agreed Jane- I work at a Med-sized Lib Arts- a very different 'culture'

Jane Park
4:34 PM
we could be floating on our iphones

Leah MacVie
4:36 PM
I think it just comes down to rubrics--- training HR offices and Admissions offices to 'convert' learning experiences. This is a simple solution to tying in the 'formal' system, and might allow you to get in on the inside in order to create change.
No one steal my rubric idea!! You all know it is my PhD proj! haha

Jane Park
4:36 PM
@leah... super interesting!

Dirk Uys
4:36 PM
so would travel agency mean that university directs you vs interrail - you direct yourself?

Philipp Schmidt
4:37 PM
yes dirk - travel agency offers you a few destinations. you can still choose one (but only the ones on the list)
inter-rail, you choose a destination (often one, that you have to walk / drive further from the train station) but then you often change your mind along the way. detours are encouraged.
Or play music?

Jane Park
4:38 PM
yes!

Chris Ewald
4:38 PM
what are some areas to focus on Jane?

Jane Park
4:38 PM
alison jean cole's music
i miss her

Billy Meinke
4:38 PM
