Gia Taijae Tejeda is 21, a junior Economics major with a minor in management and organization at Spelman College, and the Founder of All Things College. Gia is a believer in Christ, daughter, sister, trailblazer, scholar, community builder, florist, and event planner. Gia began to develop All Things College (A.T.C.) as a freshman in high school; now, her initiative turned business is committed to bridging the gap from high school to higher education within the minority community. The primary purpose of A.T.C. is to advocate for quality education by informing students and parents nationwide on college readiness, standardized test-prep, and scholarships, ensuring an increase in minority economic growth and college retention rates. This line of work is extremely near and dear to Gia's heart because she is passionate about empowering, encouraging, and equipping others to break generational glass ceilings. Gia strongly believes that if scholars from the minority communities receive a higher education, this will improve their own community and catapult their success post-graduation. Gia aspires to inspire scholars worldwide to dream big in life and reach their full potential, especially in furthering their education. Gia saw a need within her community and began to help one scholar at a time change their narrative. Reaching students who feel as though “it's too late” or have been told “they would never amount to anything” is most important in Gia's mission because she knows those same sentiments. Essentially, All Things College will make an impact, regardless of how big or small. Gia graduated from Hillgrove with a 3.4 GPA, a 29 on the ACT, and a 1360 on the SAT. Gia was honored as the BOLD Scholarship Award and scholarship recipient for 2017 from Girls Inc. of Greater Atlanta. Gia served as Vice President for Leaders of Tomorrow, National Black MBA Association Atlanta Chapter. She was a member of FBLA for her entire high school career and served as a community service and fundraiser officer as a senior. Furthermore, Gia was also recognized as a problem solver and demonstrated excellent character; she received the Dr.Hill award from her school. When Gia is not being a student at the #1 HBCU or running her business, you can find her indulging in fashion and beauty. She is the oldest daughter of Trelles Delandro-Williams and Cornell Williams. She has two younger sisters, Mariah and Camryn, that look to Gia as their role model. Gia is most passionate about helping others to reach their full potential! Whether she is working with her younger siblings, scholars within her community, or her Spelman Sisters, the thing that drives Gia is knowing she has the opportunity to make an impact. Gia has worked with The Harvey Foundation and was a speaker at the Girls Who Rule The World Event, she has been seen in Essence and Voyage ATL. She is a Girls Inc Bold Award 2019 Recipient and an Echoing Green Fellow. Gia is a student leader on campus and has plans to make her mark at Spelman. She is a member of the Economics Club, Sister Keeping it Real Through Service (SKIRTS), Morehouse Business Association, Future Business Leaders of Spelman, Presidential member of the National Society of Leadership and Success, and Co-President of Girls Going Global Spelman Chapter. Gia participated in Goldman Sachs HBCU Possibilities: Market Madness 14-week program including induction to Goldman Sachs and deep dive into key financial concepts. During the program, Gia worked diligently with her team members, also known as the “GS Dream Team”. The Dream Team competed against 125 HBCU students and placed first in the business case competition, scouring a grand prize of a $1 Million dollar grant for Spelman College. After Spelman, Gia will pursue graduate school and obtain her M.B.A. at Stanford University or the Wharton School of business. Gia's quote to live by comes from Luke 1:45, Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord will fulfill his promises to her. ------------------------------------- WHERE YOU CAN FIND ME:  Website:  https://www.girlsonanotherlevel.com  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/wearegoalinc/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/wearegoalinc  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wearegoalinc/  Email: wearegoalinc@gmail.com  If you enjoyed this episode don't forget to subscribe, rate and leave a review!  #GirlsOnAnotherLevel

Friday 12th February 2021 It’s been a relatively quiet 24 hours with only slight market moves, with traders absorbing the dovish outlook presented by Jerome Powell at the Economics Club this time yesterday/. NAB’s Gavin Friend says the Euro has held its own despite EU forecasts which have downgraded growth to 3.8 percent, from 4.2 percent. They expect the UK to do somewhat worse, not just because of the virus but also Brexit. Remember that. US China relations won’t immediately return to pre-Trump levels, with Jo Biden hooking up on the phone to President Xi, making it clear that human rights remains a concern and tariffs would remain in place.

Are you living your core personal values? If you look carefully at how you're spending your time, how aligned is it with your core values? It's a great time to step back, take stock, and make some changes that can make a big difference in the year(s) ahead. Our guest Harry Kraemer, author of Your 168: Finding Purpose and Satisfaction in a Values-Based Life, highlights how self-reflection can help create greater alignment and flexibility. A Values Based Life Our conversation covers a lot of ground: Why 168 is his favorite number. After the books he's written on leadership, what inspired him to write Your 168. What a life based on values looks like versus one that’s less so. Why self-reflection is so important – and how it's part of his day. How planning and spontaneity can co-exist. What the transition was like for him when he retired  – and what led him to teach in the MBA program at Kellogg. What a friend and colleague learned from a wake-up call. The role habits play in a values-based life. Why genuine humility and making a difference are key parts of a values-based life. His involvement in the One Acre Fund. The best way to start if you want to make the most of your 168 starting in 2021. __________________________ Bio Harry M.

Cathy Merrill Williams on lessons learned from The Chocolate Chip Cookie Test ~ ". . . it is really important that we get things, like cookies, right. We better know a good cookie from a bad cookie, a good restaurant from a bad restaurant. Because if you don't trust us on cookies and restaurants, you're never gonna trust us on doctors and lawyers and things that are hard to measure." Cathy Merrill Williams, President and Publisher Washingtonian Magazine (right) and Andy Ockershasuen, host of Our Town podcast (left) in studio interview A Ockershausen: This is Andy Ockershausen and this is Our Town. And a very special guest, a woman who's quite an accomplished business woman. She graduated from Cornell, holds a Masters Degree, Master of Science Degree from the London School of Economics. Now, that one I didn't ... That must've been your dad's idea. Catherine Merrill Williams. She chairs the board of Visitors at the University of Maryland School of Journalism, a member and Former Chapter Chair of YPO. I know what that is: Young President. Remember those good old days when you were Young President. She serves on the board of Ford's Theater, Aspen Institute, Socrates Society, the Greater Washington Board of Trade, The Merrill Family Foundation, a member of CRMA— I'll find out what that is— The Federal City Council, Cornell University Council, and the Economics Club of Washington.

Cathy Merrill Williams: Thank you. Andy, thank you for having me. A Ockershausen: You're such a big part of Our Town because of what your father did and what he started. But he actually didn't start the magazine. You're president and publisher now. But wasn't there somebody named Phillips involved with the magazine way back? Laughlin Phillips | Washingtonian Magazine Founder Cathy Merrill Williams: So, Washingtonian Magazinewas founded by Laughlin Phillips ... A Ockershausen: That's the name I heard of. Cathy Merrill Williams: Many people know that name from the Phillip's Gallery. So he ... A Ockershausen: Was it the same family? Cathy Merrill Williams: Same family. A Ockershausen: I did not know that. Cathy Merrill Williams: Same family. And Laughlin Phillips was actually a CIA agent who decided that he wanted to go into the city magazine business. And, I guess, in the early years, people thought that perhaps it was some giant cover. But it wasn't a cover. A Ockershausen: But he wasn't undercover! Cathy Merrill Williams: He was just tired of being a spy and started the magazine in 1965. Did a good job. My father came in in 1977, Laughlin ... it was struggling. Good content, but struggling on the business side. My father came in in 1977 and bought it. A Ockershausen: Well, your father was also out of the government at the time, was he not? Didn't he work for Uncle Sam? Cathy Merrill Williams: He did. A Ockershausen: When he took over the magazine? Philip Merrill Aquires Washingtonian Magazine, 1977 Cathy Merrill Williams: He did.

Thirteen powerpoint slides lead you through Dr. Thornton's presentation. There exist strong correlations between either the announcement or the completion of the world's tallest building and GDP, but it is not held that you can accurately forecast a recession or financial panic by this measurement. Thornton suggests the common cause is artificially low interest rates. This lecture was presented to the Economics Club of Auburn University at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on 8 September 2015. The PowerPoint presentation used in the lecture is available here.
