Many of us nowadays invest significant amounts of time in sharing our activities and opinions with friends and family via social networking tools. However, despite the availability of many platforms for scientists to connect and share with their peers in the scientific community the majority do not make use of these tools, despite their promise and potential impact and influence on our future careers. We are being indexed and exposed on the internet via our publications, presentations and data. We also have many more ways to contribute to science, to annotate and curate data, to “publish” in new ways, and many of these activities are as part of a growing crowdsourcing network. This presentation will provide an overview of the various types of networking and collaborative sites available to scientists and ways to expose your scientific activities online. Many of these can ultimately contribute to the developing measures of you as a scientist as identified in the new world of alternative metrics. Participating offers a great opportunity to develop a scientific profile within the community and may ultimately be very beneficial, especially to scientists early in their career.
We all have natural talents, certain tasks that come easy to us. When we use our natural talents, time moves fast and we tend to receive compliments for our abilities.

What do you always enjoy doing, and how can those skills be applied to a job?

Can Philanthropy and Fundrasing Fix our Inequality?: Exploring Philanthropy's...Roy Y. Chan
Philanthropy plays an important but complex role in higher education in the United States. While private donations to universities can increase access and resources, they may also exacerbate inequality between institutions and students. Mega-gifts from wealthy donors tend to benefit elite private universities with large endowments the most, widening gaps compared to less selective public schools. There is debate around whether philanthropy aims to reduce inequality through opportunities like scholarships, or reinforce it by further concentrating resources at already wealthy institutions attended by socioeconomically advantaged students. The impact likely depends on how and where donations are targeted.
Business Education and Catholic Higher Education: Examining the Effects of Un...Roy Y. Chan
This document discusses business education at Catholic universities in the United States. It notes that while business degrees are popular, few top business programs are at Catholic schools. It examines how two Catholic business schools, the Catholic University of America and University of Dayton, approach integrating Catholic identity and principles. The Catholic University of America more explicitly focuses on Catholic social teaching, morality, and the common good. The University of Dayton's approach is more similar to secular schools. The document argues Catholic business schools should do more to develop faculty and curriculum grounded in Catholic social thought to distinguish their mission and educate ethical leaders.
Tips on the College Admission and Application Process for High School StudentsRoy Y. Chan
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
Global Citizenship, Study Abroad, and Community College: A Case Study of Sant...Roy Y. Chan
This document analyzes the Global Studies Associates Degree program at Santa Monica Community College. It finds that while the program aims to develop globally competent citizens, graduation rates are low, especially for minority students. Pursuing study abroad is challenging without full scholarships due to rising costs. The degree may be most beneficial for privileged students who can easily transfer. It recommends encouraging other colleges to offer similar programs, focusing on universal global learning rather than just study abroad, and increasing community college membership in global education organizations.
College Inequality, College Test Preparation, Private Tutoring, and Shadow Ed...Roy Y. Chan
This document outlines a research proposal on college test preparation and shadow education systems in China and India. It begins with two main research questions focusing on the drivers of private tutoring demand and how shadow education relates to social status and university admissions. The literature review provides definitions of key terms like shadow education and discusses mixed findings on the impact of private tutoring on academic achievement. It also examines how family background and prestige-oriented views influence university attendance. Overall, the proposal aims to analyze the size and impact of shadow education in China and India in relation to academic performance and social outcomes.

This document discusses comparing institutional and student perspectives on the non-economic benefits of completing a college degree. It reviews literature on the purposes of higher education and how students and institutions view undergraduate education. The study aims to understand what matters to students during their four college years and how a bachelor's degree fulfills ambitions for advanced skills and competencies by graduation. It involves a literature review and analysis of student surveys and frameworks for degree qualifications to explore how institutional and student goals for higher education align.
