Just nine years after graduating, #MKBDH has a career worthy of speaking to the #ClassOf2024 at his alma mater‘s commencement.

He started raising the bar in consumer tech edutainment as a student at #StevensInstituteOfTechnology. Now I assign his work in my #Ethics of #Business and #Technology course. Cheers to you, Marques! Or shall we say, Dr. Brownlee?

The best day of the year at @FollowStevens might be the #InnovationExpo. I try to see every #student #research #poster—not easy!

Here are some of my favorite projects from this year (not counting my thesis advisee’s, which is obviously my top choice 🤓).

❤️‍🔥 In 1870, the @nytimes reported that #StevensInstituteOfTechnology's President Morton "assume[d] the duties of Professor of Experimental Philosophy" and aspired to offer "a general course in natural philosophy": proquest.com/docview/92578691/

1. As a philosopher-scientist with an office in Stevens's Morton Building, 😊.
2. Who else had the title "Professor of Experimental Philosophy" pre-1900?
3. Anyone else envious of those position and course titles?

“I think [high] inflation is actually over [in the U.S., and what we have with the year-over-year metric is a built-in lag in recognizing that.” “If you take the month-over-month numbers since July and annualize that, the annually compounded monthly rate has been around 2%, right at [the Fed’s target]". –George Calhoun, #economics professor and director of the Quantitative #Finance Program at #StevensInstituteOfTechnology.
