I don't love this. The BS/MBA program was valid and fairly well-attended when I was there.

But making a program that exclusively careers to early-career students strikes me as short -sighted and we'll even further limit the experiences of those on the applicant pool.

#PennState #Smeal MBA program is changing to be a 1 year program focused on STEM students in early career.

Got an email this morning that my @bmsnews location is going to be Terra cycling single-use masks. This is a great way to deal with the extra waste from keeping everyone safe!

@moy_moy_moy_ Please be safe!

@crschmidt That means increasing our protecting "value" for our local communities via using the land for local good and purposes: growing and gifting veggies for our neighbors, creating pollinator gardens and way-stations, reducing drainage issues and protecting local ecology.

[Lauren Rizzo @NinetyRobots]

@crschmidt I don't love the idea of "wealth generation" as a goal since not everything exists to make us money. I think if you own property though, we should value sustainable land management.

The dramatic shift to remote work has some employers concerned about productivity. But what they really should be concerned about is burnout. https://t.co/Jxdi8hPJpF

Hello. Your conference needs a quiet room. A designated and enforced low-stimulation space, where nobody talks, nobody has mechanical keyboards, and the lighting is muted.

You've *always* needed this room, but you need it *even more* after people have spent a year in isolation.

Hotels may want to push for BioRisk Accredidation, which encourages hotels to move to a touchless experience: qr codes for menus, hand sanitizers, cleaning requirements. #thenewnormal #CventCONNECTVirtual

Micro-weddings: a time- and money-saving COVID adaptation I can really get behind. #CventCONNECTVirtual

[Lauren Rizzo @NinetyRobots]

Events that are moving to virtual should budget much more money for video production than for in person events. @CventCONNECT's video production is an order of magnitude greater than last year's in-person event! #CventCONNECTVirtual

Like, maybe they should?

Hearing that airlines are "not competing on cleanliness and safety" is perhaps not the comforting claim these airline execs might think it is.

Touchless will be a much bigger aspect of the travel experience. #CventCONNECT

[Lauren Rizzo @NinetyRobots]

DFW airport working on touchless check-in kiosks is just one of the changes well see in the flying experience in the future. #CventCONNECT

Is the future of virtual events at hotels reliant on venues having their own internal sets and TV studios? #EventInsights #CventCONNECTVirtual

@Marriott CEO Arne Sorenson says the key for bringing back the travel and event industry is getting offices to open safely. When offices are open, work travel becomes necessary and viral #CventCONNECTVirtual

Arne Sorenson from @Marriott is optimistic that the travel industry is going to quickly bounce back from #COVID19 #CventCONNECTVirtual
