This episode of *The Common Bridge* is part of a special 21‑part series of interviews recorded with healthcare leaders from across Michigan during the 2026 Mackinac Policy Conference, in partnership with the Michigan Health and Hospital Association.In these short conversations, with his guests, Rich explores regulation, cost pressures, workforce challenges, and the future of Healthcare in Michigan and around the Country.A rule written in 1906 still helps decide what “counts” as learning in Michigan classrooms and we think it's long past time to rethink it. From the Mackinac Policy Conference, we sit down with former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder to unpack how seat time requirements can quietly block the most practical kinds of education reform: project-based learning, competency-based credit, and interdisciplinary courses that feel like the real world students are about to enter.We dig into what a student-centered, real-life results model looks like when districts are actually allowed to try it. That means combining subjects (like English with history), connecting math to skilled trades, and building programs where learners demonstrate mastery instead of just logging hours. Snyder explains the bipartisan push behind current Michigan legislation and why local approval matters, with educators and parents closest to students helping shape innovation plans.We also connect education policy to the healthcare workforce pipeline. Michigan hospitals and clinics need motivated talent, and early exposure to health careers can turn school into something students want to show up for. We talk about programs already training future phlebotomists, rad techs, lab techs, and other in-demand roles, plus the “durable skills” that matter even more as artificial intelligence reshapes work: teamwork, critical thinking, and smart use of new tools.If you care about Michigan education, career and technical education, healthcare staffing, or economic growth, this conversation delivers a clear argument for changing the rules so communities can build modern pathways. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review with your take: should schools measure learning by time or by results?Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

Some homeschool graduates launch into adulthood with confidence, while others finish all the curriculum and still feel stuck. The difference is rarely grades — and this episode is going to show you exactly what it is.We are breaking down the shift from raising students to raising homeschool graduates who are truly prepared for real life, with 3 practical things you can start doing this week:✅Why completed curriculum and good grades do not equal real-life readiness✅1 question every homeschool mom needs to ask about building life skills in your kids✅What truly successful adults have in common — and how to build it before they leave home✅Why character, initiative, and problem solving matter more than any test score✅How to let your child solve one problem this week without stepping in — starting todayGrab the Free Character Building Mini Chart mentioned in this episode and start building what really matters in your homeschool today.Resources for You Free Character Building Mini Chart New homeschool support community early access Show Notes:Why Some Homeschool Graduates Launch Into Adulthood With Confidence — And Others Don'tHave you ever wondered why some homeschool graduates launch into adulthood with confidence while others seem stuck — even though both finished their curriculum and both made good grades? What if you are checking off all the boxes but missing the thing that actually prepares your child for adult life?Today we're talking about the difference between information and preparation for real life.What Traditional Education Rewards vs. What Real Life RewardsMany graduates know facts, but they struggle with decision-making, responsibility, work ethic, communication, and initiative. Traditional education — at least for the past 200 years — rewards compliance and completion. Real life rewards wisdom, perseverance, and leadership.We tend to measure success by completed curriculum, grades, transcripts, and test scores. Those things are easy to measure, so we feel secure in them. And yet that isn't always what is best for our kids. The things that are easy to measure aren't always what will prepare them for real life. Character, wisdom, initiative, responsibility, leadership — those are harder to measure. And yet those are the qualities that determine success as an adult.So I want you to ask yourself this question today. What adult skill are you intentionally building in your children right now? Time management? Communication? Problem solving? Responsibility? Grab a piece of paper and write down three things you want your kids to be able to do or be known for at the age of 25. Then see if those are things you're actually working on with them right now.You might notice that most of what you write down are character qualities — not academic achievements.Clara Barton Didn't Change the World With a TranscriptClara Barton started the American Red Cross. She was educated largely at home because she was very shy and struggled in traditional settings. She had very little formal schooling compared to what standards are today. Why? Because her family focused on character, service, and practical responsibility.She later founded the American Red Cross and became one of the most influential humanitarians in our history. Her impact didn't come from a high school transcript. It came from compassion, leadership, courage, and a willingness to take responsibility when others wouldn't. Does anyone remember Clara Barton because she completed a curriculum? No. They remember her because she had an impact on others. She served others well.The Real Question Is Not Can They Find InformationInformation has never been more readily available. Kids can find any fact they want instantly on their phones. The question is not can they find information. The question is can they use that information wisely? Can they solve problems? Can they make wise decisions? Can they think critically? Can they follow God when life gets hard?Those are the things I wanted for my own children. Now that I watch them going through some trials — they're all in their 30s — I am thankful that God is still working in them and they are making wise decisions.What qualities consistently show up in successful adults? The ability to think critically and biblically. To communicate. To solve problems. To keep learning. To have a strong character and a strong work ethic. To persevere. To have integrity and dignity. These are not measured by a worksheet or a test score.Booker T. Washington and the Tuskegee ModelBooker T. Washington is one of my favorite historical characters. He was born into slavery. He had very little formal education. He pursued learning relentlessly and went to Hampton Institute, where he was trained not only academically but in discipline, responsibility, and leadership.He later founded Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. When you went to Tuskegee, yes, you chose an academic major — but you also had to choose a practical activity you would use to help build the university. Some students were construction workers who built the new buildings. Some were cooks who cooked the food all the students ate. Some were gardeners who grew the food. It was a dual pathway to graduation — academics and real-world responsibility together.Booker T. Washington's success came from perseverance, leadership, and responsibility. And in one particular year, there were more millionaires from Tuskegee than from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton combined — because his system worked. He didn't just teach academics. He taught life skills that students could use for the rest of their lives.The education that changes life isn't just information. It includes character formation and practical wisdom.Who Is Your Child Becoming?Many moms can plan subjects, lessons, and activities. But few intentionally plan character building, leadership opportunities, decision-making practice, independent thinking, real-world responsibility, work ethic, self-discipline, communication, and biblical wisdom. Those are all things your children need to be successful as adults.Most homeschool moms ask — what should my child learn? But the real question is — who is my child becoming?Make a list of who you want your child to be when they leave your home. If they're five, you have lots of time. If they're 15, that's okay too. There is still time. God is gracious and He has the Holy Spirit — and that is what can take you through and get your kids prepared.Most adults don't struggle because they forgot algebra. They struggle because they can't manage money, relationships, priorities, or decisions.If your child graduated tomorrow, what would you want people to say about them? I know what I wanted. I wanted someone to say they're following Jesus. They honor Jesus. They live a life of godly character. They have perseverance, work ethic, and integrity. It's not what your kids are memorizing — it's who they become.What to Do This WeekLet your child solve one problem without you. Don't step in immediately. Give them time to think it through. That builds lifelong skills. If they're not sure where to start, ask them — what do you think you should do first? Let them find the answer.That one shift — from solving it for them to asking them to think — is the beginning of everything.If this episode helped you, would you please share it with someone? That would mean the world to me.I also have two things for you. First, a free character building mini chart — the link is in the show notes. Second, I'm building a limited community of homeschool moms where we can encourage each other and answer questions about where you are right now. If you'd like early access, there is a sign-up link in the show notes as well. year?

VOV1 - Ưu tiên phát triển nguồn nhân lực STEM đang trở thành xu hướng tại nhiều quốc gia trên thế giới. Australia là một trong những nước đã triển khai nhiều chính sách mạnh mẽ nhằm khuyến khích sinh viên theo học các ngành STEM.Chính phủ Australia đang hiện thực hóa mục tiêu “Tương lai do Australia kiến tạo” thông qua việc hỗ trợ học sinh theo đuổi các ngành Khoa học, Công nghệ, Kỹ thuật và Toán học (STEM), với các khoản đầu tư quan trọng dành cho những lộ trình giáo dục có thể dẫn đến nghề nghiệp trong ngành công nghiệp quốc phòng Australia. Thông qua Chương trình Lộ trình Học đường (Schools Pathways Program), 10 khoản tài trợ mới được trao cho các tổ chức để phối hợp với các trường học và cơ sở giáo dục triển khai những chương trình đổi mới trong các lĩnh vực STEM. Trước đó từ năm 2021, Chính phủ của cựu Thủ tướng Scott Morrison triển khai chương trình Job-ready Graduates (Đào tạo sinh viên sẵn sàng cho thị trường lao động) nhằm điều chỉnh học phí để định hướng sinh viên theo học các ngành mà nền kinh tế đang thiếu nhân lực. Theo đó, học phí các ngành STEM, điều dưỡng và sư phạm được giảm, trong khi học phí các ngành nghệ thuật, nhân văn, luật và thương mại tăng mạnh, có ngành lên tới khoảng 50.000-54.000 AUD cho một bằng cử nhân.Chính phủ Australia đã trình dự luật quy định áp dụng hạn mức cứng đối với số lượng sinh viên mà các trường đại học được phép tuyển sinh.

The Cambridge Five did more damage to the Western Bloc than any other intelligence outfit of the Cold War. They were five Cambridge graduates who drank gin at the right clubs, moved through the right corridors of British intelligence at the height of WW2, and quietly handed Stalin the keys to post-war Europe. Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt, Donald Maclean, Guy Burgess, and John Cairncross were recruited for their sympathies to communism because they were radicalized by the wreckage of World War I and the Great Depression. They believed that Soviet communism was the only serious answer. The Five each quickly took up a place in the British government, granting them access to top-secret intelligence that they shared with the USSR, whether decrypted German intelligence obtained from Alan Turing’s Bletchley Park and the Wehrmacht’s latest troop movements, or nuclear designs fresh from Manhattan Project labs. What followed was decades of betrayal so consequential it shaped the entire postwar map of Eastern Europe. They did this not just by passing secrets, but by condemning millions of Poles, Ukrainians, Albanians, and Baltic peoples to Soviet repression when their underground resistance networks were quietly handed over to Moscow. Today’s guest is Antonia Senior, author of Stalin's Apostles, and she explains how she pieced together a story that was designed never to be found, because moles don't leave paper trails, and the Cambridge Five made sure their communications rarely entered any correspondence at all. We see that they did more to cause the Iron Curtain to descend deep into Europe than any other intelligence group.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Front Porch Chats, we hear from recent graduates of the EMPOWER Youth Leadership Program from Taylor County as they reflect on a year of personal growth, leadership development, and discovering how they can make a lasting impact in their communities.Through EMPOWER, these students participated in hands-on learning experiences that helped them strengthen communication skills, build confidence, and better understand the importance of service, teamwork, and civic engagement. The program encouraged them to step beyond the classroom and see leadership in action through meaningful interactions with community leaders and organizations.From personal development and leadership training to learning about cooperative education, community service, and economic development, students gained valuable insight into what it takes to help communities grow and thrive.Students also share memorable moments from the program, including discovering their individual strengths, participating in community-focused activities, and learning practical life and professional skills that will serve them well after high school.Most importantly, these Taylor County graduates reflect on how EMPOWER challenged them to think differently about leadership—and helped them realize they are capable of making a difference wherever life leads them.Join us as we celebrate the next generation of Taylor County leaders and hear how EMPOWER is helping students turn potential into purpose.

In Episode 318 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William and I-man dig into the booming collectibles wave: Collector Crypt's exploding revenue, twenty five hundred dollar Pokemon packs, and a new SDK that lets anyone build a storefront on top of real-world graded card inventory. They ask why gambling on cardboard might be crypto's next consumer onramp, and where it goes after Pokemon. Then they unpack Bitcoin's power law: a new analysis that fit only the first six years of price data yet nailed the next decade. What do those assumptions hide, and why is the Coinbase CEO shrugging off quantum risk and the long-term security budget? As the guys put it, when no OG Bitcoiner is concerned, that's concerning.

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/4g30PWo This special episode of The Dividend Cafe features David Bahnsen's 2026 commencement address at Pacifica Christian High School of Orange County, introduced by his daughter and graduate Sadie. As a co-founder and trustee of the school, Bahnsen shares faith-informed life advice centered on the school's emphasis on thinking well and living well, urging graduates to reject perpetual negativity, victimhood, and fatalism about the economy, AI, or personal trauma. He argues that people are not defined or owned by hardships and can choose optimism, responsibility, and joy, including avoiding “doom scrolling” and building healthy habits and relationships. He challenges parents and adults not to spread cynicism and calls graduates to be “builders” who pursue hope, peace, and purpose in Christ. 00:00 Welcome and Special Episode 01:05 Why This Commencement Speech 02:32 Faith Theme and Setup 03:00 Sadie Introduces Her Dad 05:17 Opening Remarks and Pacifica Vision 07:10 High School Nostalgia and Culture 09:03 Think Well and Live Well 10:46 Reject Victimhood and Negativity 12:14 Today Is the Best Day 14:12 Healing Beyond Trauma 16:08 Choose Optimism and Agency 18:30 Be Builders Not Destroyers 19:02 Charge to the Graduates 20:27 Love and Final Blessing 21:44 Disclosures and Disclaimer Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

There once was a man who gave up everything important so he could cling to things that fade. If we want to follow Jesus, we cannot be like that man.

It's commencement season. Graduates are preparing to step into a new chapter of their lives, to leave familiar faces and places behind and chart a new path. And perhaps one of the most iconic moments of graduation is the commencement speech: a few moments of reflection, inspiration and encouragement before crossing one of life's many thresholds. Many of us have heard a commencement speech or two in our lives; many of us may have even heard such an address given at a Jesuit institution. But how many of us remember those addresses? More importantly, how many of us continue to live our lives informed by the best hopes and values and encouragement that such an address intends to convey? For many of us, as the daily grind of life churns ever onward, those words fade and are forgotten. That was the worry, at least, of our guests today. Two longtime veterans of Jesuit higher education, Patrick Furlong and Marissa Papula want us to remember what it means to go out and into the world intent in setting it aflame with the fire of the Holy Spirit. Patrick is the director of the Pam Rector Center for Service and Action at—and a two time alum of—Loyola Marymount University. Marissa Papula is now the director of development for Discerning Deacons but spent more than a decade in Jesuit higher education. And they're here today to offer all of us a commencement address of sorts. Before we get to it, before they share prepared remarks, we wanted to sit down and get to them a little bit, to hear about their journeys and why this time of year is important. So, you'll hear that first. Then, stay tuned for their full commencement address, words to inspire each of us no matter how far out from a graduation we may be.

For Memorial Day, a new interview on its history, and some recent favorites: Kenneth C. Davis, author of the "Don't Know Much About History" series and most recently, The World in Books: 52 Works of Great Short Nonfiction (Scribner, 2024), shares the history of how Americans have observed Memorial Day and its history Jodi Kantor, New York Times investigative reporter, co-author of She Said (Penguin, 2019) and author of How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work (Hachette, 2026), expands on her Columbia University commencement address where she tried to answer the question, “How, in this environment, is anyone supposed to find and start their life's work?”.
