Good piece on how Miami of Ohio is investing heavily in athletics to grow the university, and to position it for the next split in college athletics. I like this quote from its AD: “A unique time gives opportunities.”

Yesterday, the Class of 2030 and their families visited campus for their Welcome Meetings. Our future Edsmen met with teachers to choose their classes and stopped by the Green & Gold Shop to pick up some Eagle gear. We’re excited to welcome them to the Brotherhood! 🦅

In life you’ll be tested often. You will fail. You’ll face setbacks. You’ll often get discouraged. But the key is to: Stay faithful. Keep working. Get better.

Manufacturers are testing #AI to improve planning and manage risk, but siloed, low-quality data can hold back results. Grant Thornton shows AI works best when data is accurate, shared and governed across the business. #manufacturing bit.ly/4bicJI3
