MIT Concourse is a program for first-year students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology that “brings science into conversation with the humanities.” It also hosts the Civil Discourse Project, which seeks to “reinvigorate the open exchange of ideas at MIT.” In this episode of Higher Ed Now, ACTA's Bryan Paul interviews Senior Lecturer Linda Rabieh to learn how the Civil Discourse Project has used the Braver Angels debate format championed by the College Debates and Discourse Alliance — a joint program of the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, Braver Angels, and BridgeUSA — to prepare our nation's future STEM leaders for thoughtful, engaged citizenship. He also speaks with Mariam Abdelbarr, Isaac Lock, and Siddhu Pachipala, three students who have helped plan and conduct debates at MIT.

ACTA's Program Coordinator for the College Debates and Discourse Alliance, Kayla Johnston, returns to her alma mater, the University of North Carolina (UNC)–Greensboro, for a conversation with two student leaders: Lauren Fletcher and Matt Kircher. Thanks to the generous support of the Barnes Family Foundation, the College Debates and Discourse Alliance has brought its debates and dialogues to over 11 institutions within the UNC System. As Lee Barnes Campus Debate Student Fellows, Ms. Fletcher and Mr. Kircher have organized several Braver Angels debates at UNC–Greensboro since the fall of 2023. Together, they reflect on how our programming has helped revive a culture of open dialogue, viewpoint diversity, and free expression on campus.

ACTA President Michael Poliakoff welcomes The Honorable John Hillen, distinguished resident fellow at the Center for Politics in Duke University's Sanford School of Public Policy and an executive-in-residence of the Political Science Department. Dr. Hillen is a combat veteran and Bronze Star recipient, a former assistant U.S. secretary of state, a successful business leader, and the author of The Strategy Dialogues: A Primer on Business Strategy and Strategic Management. He also serves on ACTA's National Commission on American History and Civic Education. Drs. Poliakoff and Hillen discuss how to engage students in the study of American civics and higher education's role in preparing students to be next generation leaders in the areas of American foreign policy and national security.

In this episode of Corporate Treasury 101, we dive into the evolving role of corporate treasury and explore how it can shift from a traditional cost center to a strategic business partner. Our guest, Kurt Smith, Director at Marengo Capital and Vice President of the Australian Corporate Treasury Association, shares actionable insights on how treasury teams can move beyond operational functions and start driving enterprise value. We explore how treasurers can help define risk appetite, optimize capital allocation, and influence key business decisions. From understanding the strategic importance of metrics like ROIC and WACC to navigating internal relationships and regulatory discussions, this episode is packed with practical advice for any treasury professional looking to elevate their impact.Kurt Smith draws from decades of experience in fund management, derivatives trading, and treasury consulting to explain how corporate finance teams can move upstream in the value chain. He breaks down what it means to be a strategic treasurer, how to optimize working capital through better cash conversion cycles, and why financial acumen should be embedded across treasury teams. We also discuss the state of treasury in Australia, how ACTA supports professionals through networking and education, and how treasurers can embrace AI to free up time for higher-value work.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeHow to reposition treasury from a cost center to a value-adding business partnerThe importance of aligning treasury with enterprise risk appetite and capital allocationWhy understanding ROIC and WACC is critical for measuring impactHow to improve working capital through smarter cash conversion and internal advocacyReal-world examples of building treasury influence through operational and regulatory engagementHow ACTA is raising the bar for treasury professionals in AustraliaWhere AI fits into the future of strategic treasuryEpisode Breakdown & Timestamps[00:00] – Introduction & AFP Partnership ($100 Off CTP Certification)[01:00] – Kurt Smith's Background and Role at ACTA[03:03] – What Treasury Departments Typically Focus On[04:39] – Core Treasury Functions: Cash, Risk, and Funding[06:15] – From Cost Center to Value Creation Unit[09:12] – Defining and Influencing Risk Appetite[13:36] – Operational vs. Strategic Treasury[17:28] – KPIs that Matter: ROIC, WACC, and Enterprise Risk[20:59] – Turning Treasury into a Profit Center[26:00] – Strategic Cash Flow Management & Internal Advocacy[30:37] – Case Study: Streamlining Insurance with Tech[34:51] – Cash Conversion Cycle and Working Capital Optimization[41:50] – Creating a Competitive Internal Market for Capital[46:00] – Real-Time Cost of Capital: Why Treasury Should Own It[55:00] – Treasury in Australia: Opportunities & Challenges[01:03:00] – ACTA's Role in Supporting Treasury Professionals[01:10:00] – AI, Digital Tools & the Future of Strategic Treasury[01:24:48] – Final Thoughts & How to Connect with KurtFollow our guest Kurt Smith:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kurt-smith-phd-97053515/ Website:

Lee Deuteronomio 16:1–20 El 15 de septiembre de 1821, a través de la firma del Acta de Independencia por parte de la Capitanía general de Guatemala entonces conformada por los actuales países de Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua y Costa Rica, se rompieron los lazos con el imperio Español. La firma de este documento trajo como consecuencia la independencia del Gobierno Español. Desde esa fecha se celebra la independencia de estos países con desfiles, cohetes y fiestas. En Deuteronomio 16, Moisés describe una serie de fiestas que marcarían el año de Israel: la Pascua, la fiesta de las Semanas y la fiesta de las Enramadas. Estas fiestas serían una forma de que Israel recordara y celebrara los actos poderosos de Dios que llevaron al nacimiento de la nación. En la Pascua, recordarían cómo el Señor los sacó de la esclavitud (v. 1). Para recordarles la prisa de su partida, comerían pan sin levadura y consumirían toda la carne del cordero sacrificado esa noche (vv. 3–4). En la fiesta de las Semanas, Israel celebraba la provisión continua de Dios para ellos (v. 9). Les recordaba que la tierra que habían heredado era un regalo de Dios (v. 12). En la fiesta de las Enramadas, recordaban cómo Dios les proveyó de comida y agua en el desierto. Como seguidores de Cristo, no tenemos la obligación de celebrar estas fiestas. Jesús es nuestro cordero pascual de una vez por todas. Pablo enseña: “Desháganse de la vieja levadura para que sean masa nueva, panes sin levadura, como lo son en realidad. Porque Cristo, nuestro Cordero pascual, ya ha sido sacrificado” (1 Corintios 5:7). Sin embargo, es sabio crear un espacio en nuestro calendario para celebrar lo que Dios ha hecho. La iglesia lo ha hecho históricamente a través de la Navidad, Pascua, Ascensión y Pentecostés. Algunas de estas fiestas (Pascua y Pentecostés) están directamente relacionadas con las fiestas anuales de Israel (Pascua y Semanas). Reflexionar sobre lo que Dios ha hecho debería llevarnos a una adoración comunitaria y gozosa. ¿Qué celebraciones especiales dan forma a tu vida familiar y tu vida en la iglesia? ¿Qué tradiciones nos hacen recordar todo lo que Dios ha hecho? Ora con nosotros Señor Jesucristo, por Tu Espíritu, ablanda nuestros corazones para que podamos escuchar Tu voz, volvernos a Ti y adorarte solo a Ti. Hoy “proclamará la memoria de tu inmensa bondad y se cantará con júbilo de tu justicia” (Salmos 145:7).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, I discuss with my colleagues, Dr. Richard E. Engler, Director of Chemistry for B&C and The Acta Group (Acta®), our consulting affiliate, and Kelly N. Garson, Senior Associate for B&C and Acta, our recently released book, titled Chemical Product Law and Supply Chain Stewardship: A Guide to New TSCA, published by the American Bar Association. As listeners know, as a law firm and consulting firm, we do a lot of work under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and have gained a significant amount of hands-on practical knowledge about the law, the 2016 Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act amendments to it, and the transformative impact these amendments have had on business transactions. We set out a year or so ago to write a book that explains TSCA through a business transactions lens. Of course, we explain the law, but we really write as business counselors to enable the regulated community -- importers, chemical producers, finished product manufacturers, distributors, and chemical users -- to be TSCA aware. The law has become, whether you like it or not, an important factor in virtually every business decision. My conversation today with Kelly and Rich focuses on several of their chapters in the book, and they explain how they approached writing a book about a law from the perspective of the business community.

In this episode, ACTA Vice President of Policy Bradley Jackson talks with Jane Calvert, director of the John Dickinson Writings Project and a member of ACTA's National Commission on American History and Civic Education. They contend that the study of history is less about rote memorization and more like being a detective excavating an unsolved mystery or a lawyer preparing to argue an important and novel legal case. Dr. Calvert discusses how a deeper understanding of history reveals us to ourselves and why she is passionate about preserving the life and writings of one of America's unheralded Founders, John Dickinson.

El nuevo secretario general del PSOE abordará cambios en la Asamblea Regional aunque hablará antes con la dirección y dejará el escaño en el congreso si esa tarea le aleja del trabajo en la región. Francisco Lucas reconoce que le ilusiona encabezar la candidatura a la presidencia de la comunidad aunque hay que respetar los tiempos que marca el partido.Francisco Lucas, anuncia decisiones en los próximos días que permitirán apreciar el cambio en el partido. Lucas asegura que el nuevo proyecto que sale del congreso del fin de semana marca las prioridades de la región y el objetivo que es volver a gobernar.Dice Lucas que le emocionó que Pedro Sánchez le situara en la candidatura a la presidencia y si para llegar a ello tiene que dejar de ser diputado, no lo dudará.Sobre si Vélez dejará la portavocía en la Asamblea, asegura que es algo que hablará con él y el resto del grupo. Y mantiene tendida la mano a Fernando López Miras para negociar unos presupuestos aunque también recuerda que el presidente regional no se ha molestado ni en contestar.Lamenta el líder socialista que López Miras solo busque confrontar, defiende que el partido sale unido del congreso y califica de orgullo tener a un histórico como Fuentes Zorita en la presidencia de la formación.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson is a Bestselling Author, TEDx Speaker and International Keynote Speaker, and Leadership Coach to Warriors, CEO's and entrepreneurs. He's also the host of the top rated Acta Non Verba Podcast. While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army, Marcus suffered a severe spinal injury that left him paralyzed. After dying on the operating table twice, the surgeons saved his life, but told him he'd never walk again. Having no other option, Marcus started doing some brutally honest soul searching, looking for the lesson to be learned from his injury. Once he started seeing his Adversity as a gift instead of a curse, something miraculous began to happen... Marcus now speaks, writes, inspires and coaches others to overcome their own Adversities to actualize their personal definition of success in business and every aspect of life.

The guys return to Everglades National Park, again looking for a predator that Daniel wants to get too close to: the American Crocodile (Crocodylus acutus). Listen in as Daniel shares some research, busts croc-related myths, and Steve probably gets a little too excited about how crocs deal with salt water. Bill doesn't have much to say, but he's there, too. Enjoy!This episode was recorded on January 7, 2025 on the Bear Lake Trail in Everglades National Park. The last bit where the guys find the croc was also recorded in the Park, at the Flamingo Marina.Episode Notes and LinksAs promised during the episode, Steve is looking into how crocs process and excrete excess salt. As soon as he gets to the bottom of it, we'll share it here.In the meantime, here's what Bill found when he asked DeepSeek: Crocodiles, like many other marine and estuarine reptiles, have specialized salt glands to help them excrete excess salt from their bodies. These glands, known as salt glands or lingual glands (located on their tongues), actively transport salt ions (primarily sodium and chloride) from their bloodstream into the gland ducts. The salt is then excreted as a concentrated saline solution, which is expelled from the body.Crocodiles do not chemically change the salt (sodium chloride) into something else. Instead, they filter and concentrate it, allowing them to maintain proper electrolyte balance in their bodies, especially when living in saltwater environments. This process is crucial for osmoregulation, as it prevents dehydration and helps them survive in both freshwater and saltwater habitats.In summary, crocodiles excrete salt in its original form (sodium chloride) but in a highly concentrated solution, rather than transforming it into a different substance.Sponsors and Ways to Support UsGumleaf Boots, USA (free shipping for patrons)Thank you to Always Wandering Art (Website and Etsy Shop) for providing the artwork for many of our episodes.Support us on Patreon.Check out the Field Guides merch at our Teespring store.

ACTA's president Michael Poliakoff speaks with the distinguished scholar and education leader, Joshua Dunn, who took on leadership of the recently established Institute of American Civics at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville in June, 2023. Professor Dunn was previously the executive director of the Center for the Study of Government and the Individual at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, where he was also professor and chair of the Political Science department. His book, From Schoolhouse to Courthouse - The Judiciary's Role in American Education, offers an important view of the complex relationship between courts and education. His landmark study co-authored with Jon A. Shields, Passing on the Right: Conservative Professors in the Progressive University, makes a strong case for why robust and uninhibited intellectual inquiry should be at the center of the American academy.

ACTA's Doug Sprei interviews Peter Skerry, professor of political science at Boston College, who has served as a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and research fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. He has been featured in a variety of scholarly and national media publications, and is the author of Counting on the Census: Race, Group Identity, and the Evasion of Politics (published by Brookings), and Mexican Americans: The Ambivalent Minority (published by Free Press/Harvard University Press), which was awarded the Los Angeles Times Book Prize.  Sprei first encountered Skerry while chairing a debate on immigration at the Braver Angels Convention at Carthage College in June, 2024. During that highly charged event, as Skerry stood up to speak and address other speakers, it became apparent that he is deeply conversant with issues around immigration, a topic that has polarized and challenged society for decades. Skerry is currently advising Braver Angels on framing constructive community dialogue around immigration. In this episode, he shares insights into why it has become such a weaponized topic in today's politics, and why educators should encourage students to embrace uncomfortable conversations around controversial issues.

Een kwart van de Nederlanders is bang om naar de tandarts te gaan. 4 procent is zelfs zo bang dat ze hun tanden liever laten wegrotten dan dat ze naar de tandarts gaan. Hetzelfde geldt voor prikangst. Zo'n 20 tot 30 procent van de wereldbevolking is bang voor naalden. Onder kinderen loopt dat zelfs op tot 50 procent.     Gelukkig is er aan beide angsten iets te doen. Er zijn effectieve therapieën, behandeling met VR-brillen en er wordt gewerkt aan een naaldloze injectie.     Nina van den Dungen praat erover Ad de Jongh, psycholoog, angsttandarts en hoogleraar verbonden aan het Academisch Centrum Tandheelkunde Amsterdam, het ACTA. En met Lea Milovich, CEO en co-founder van de med-techonderneming FlowBeams, die de naaldloze injectie ontwikkeld.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For the past several years, ACTA has collaborated with the Alumni Free Speech Alliance (AFSA) to defend free expression, academic freedom, and viewpoint diversity on college and university campuses. With hundreds of alumni advocates across 27 institutions, AFSA represents a national movement empowering alumni to exert positive, meaningful influence on their alma maters. One of the most active groups to emerge from this movement is the MIT Free Speech Alliance (MFSA). As they support activities from on-campus debates to off-campus mobilization, MFSA members have proven to be both friends and ardent critics of their alma mater. This fall, ACTA's College Debates and Discourse Alliance curricular fellow, Dr. Bryan Paul, attended MFSA's annual conference in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he moderated a panel discussion with senior administrators from several institutions on strategies to improve the free speech culture on college campuses. He also recorded this interview with MFSA President Wayne Stargardt and MFSA Executive Director Peter Bonilla, a deep dive into MFSA's reform efforts at MIT and beyond.

“In days of peace the soldier performs maneuvers, throws up earthworks with no enemy in sight, and wearies himself by gratuitous toil, in order that he may be equal to unavoidable toil. If you would not have a man flinch when the crisis comes, train him before it comes.” - Seneca   In This Episode, We Get Stoic About:   Like the Minutemen we must drill and remain vigilant, ready to respond in a moment's notice.  And like the rattlesnake, we must remain peaceful until threatened -  violent but under voluntary control.   We talk about the importance of maintaining a state of readiness on today's podcast!   Resources + Links:   Connect with Kristofor | www.kristoforhealey.com Connect with Kristofor on Instagram | @team_healey Subscribe to The Stoic Responder on Substack | https://thestoicresponder.substack.com Subscribe to The Stoic Responder on YouTube | The Stoic Responder Buy your copy of In Valor: 365 Stoic Meditations for First Responders, here!

Through accurate heart rate tracking and real-time feedback, all effort counts.   Takeaways:   Understand the reality of the world around us. Prepare for potential crises through mental readiness. The Stoics teach us to control what we can internally. Being prepared is a proactive mindset. Self-reflection is key to personal development. Community support is essential during crises. Training and preparedness can prevent panic during emergencies. The importance of mental health initiatives for first responders. Acta non-verba: actions speak louder than words. Regularly assess your preparedness for unforeseen events.   Until Next Time…out of role! 

In this episode of Higher Ed Now, the second of two conversations devoted to core texts, ACTA's Academic Affairs Fellow Veronica Bryant speaks in Spanish with Clemente Cox, classics and philosophy scholar and the Academic Director of the Center of General Studies at the Universidad de los Andes. Their conversation includes the differences between Anglo-Saxon and Hispanic higher education, core curricula, the “barbarism of specialism,” what we mean when we talk about Great Books, the humanities' special relevance today, and the Hispanic Canon study abroad program that Clemente Cox will co-lead with Maria Jose Gomez in summer 2025. Clemente Cox holds a MA in Philosophy, with a concentration in Classical Languages, from the Universidad de los Andes, Chile. He received both his BA in Philosophy and his BA in Literature from the same university. He currently serves as academic director of the Center for General Studies at the Universidad de los Andes, Chile. In addition to coordinating the general education program, he teaches courses in anthropology, ethics and core texts in literature. His research focuses on the intersections between ancient literature and the practical philosophy of figures such as Aristotle, Plato and Xenophon. He is also interested in the tradition of rhetorical education and its potential uses in contemporary educational contexts. In Fall 2024, he will start studying for a Ph.D. in Philosophy at the University of Dallas.

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Many college students lack basic knowledge of American history, posing a threat to our democratic values. Survey results reveal alarming gaps, such as students not knowing James Madison is the Father of the Constitution. To address this, I urge everyone to study American history and its virtues, ensuring future generations can uphold our nation's core principles.
