“We already have a professor who's using an online social network of MIT alums to help educate students in programming. Just imagine expanding that in Facebook-fashion to tens or hundreds of millions of people around the world.” PeopleWorldHelpingSocialMillionsImagineFashionStudentsAround The WorldProgrammingOnlineProfessorsEducateExpandingSocial NetworkMit Author:Anant Agarwal
“I'm constantly correcting young people and fashion students in this nation when they say "Well, I do couture." By definition, you don't. You have to be licensed by the government of France to do couture. So don't use that term. You can say that you do one-of-a-kind, you can say it's custom, but you can't say it's couture - because it's inaccurate.” PeopleWellsKindUseGovernmentYoungNationsTermFashionStudentsDefinitionsFranceCustomsCorrectingOne Of A KindCouture Author:Tim Gunn
“Many students don't really like it (fashion). If they don't like it, they won't be able to tell you who the stylists are or the photographers. If they say they can't remember the names but they recognize the work, I'll say that's bullshit because if you were selling mobile phones, you'd know all about the phones' features and tariffs.” IfsKnowsAbleRememberNamesFashionStudentsPhotographerPhonesSellingFeaturesBullshitMobileStylistMobile PhonesTariffs Author:Louise Wilson
“There is too much ideological conformity in gender studies. The true-believers fashion the theories, write the textbooks and teach the students. When journalists, policymakers, and legislators address topics such as the wage gap, gender and education, or women's health, they turn to these experts for enlightenment. For the most part, they peddle misinformation, victim politics, and sophistry. They claim that their teachings represent the academic consensus, but that is only because they have excluded all dissenters.” WritingTurnsTeachStudyToo MuchTeachingFashionStudentsTheoryEnlightenmentClaimsVictimGenderBelieverJournalistExpertsAddressesGapsConformityAcademicTopicsConsensusIdeologicalTextbooksLegislatorsExcludedMisinformationTrue BelieverSophistryWomen's Health Author:Christina Hoff Sommers
