WEBVTT

00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:12.439
very well acquainted with a s. You obviously in the Valley of the Sun, but

00:00:17.019 --> 00:00:23.186
it became much more acquainted by one
of your alumni Greg trias who

00:00:23.219 --> 00:00:29.616
introduced me to Michael Crowe. And
that was the start of a several great

00:00:29.649 --> 00:00:35.516
relationships. I'm a pioneer, new
ideas and new thoughts and new programs

00:00:35.549 --> 00:00:42.497
and the like and s you gave me the
opportunity to bring forth to that I

00:00:42.530 --> 00:00:49.796
feel are so instrumental to the world
for the future. One is the Sanford

00:00:49.829 --> 00:00:55.807
Harmony program being developed by dr
rick Babes in the school of family

00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:03.266
and social dynamics. The other one is
to teach for America inc of teach

00:01:03.299 --> 00:01:09.376
for America into the school of
Education run by mary corner. And those two

00:01:09.409 --> 00:01:13.857
programs are in fact going to change
change the world. So Denny Sanford is

00:01:13.890 --> 00:01:20.867
one of these really unusual human
beings. He uh, is a person who is self

00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:25.837
made, uh, brings himself up,
conceptualize his business enterprises,

00:01:25.870 --> 00:01:31.266
advances those business enterprises to
wild levels of success. And then he

00:01:31.299 --> 00:01:34.536
uh makes a lot of money and then he
says, you know what I'm gonna do, I'm

00:01:34.569 --> 00:01:39.236
gonna take all that money and I'm
going to invest all of it to help people

00:01:39.269 --> 00:01:43.986
to have a better life. Because what
he's really interested in is Children

00:01:44.019 --> 00:01:47.906
being more successful, Children
learning better Children having better

00:01:47.939 --> 00:01:52.656
teachers, Children having an
opportunity to grow up and be educated in an

00:01:52.689 --> 00:01:57.236
environment where they're safe and
secure. So he's working with us, not

00:01:57.269 --> 00:02:02.507
just through his investments but
through his hard drive for us to produce

00:02:02.540 --> 00:02:06.007
not only academic products, but for us
to also produce products that

00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:10.297
change people's lives and generate all
the economic activity that a

00:02:10.330 --> 00:02:13.626
business represents for a community,
but also how to make investments that

00:02:13.659 --> 00:02:18.077
actually change the outcome of our
society. There aren't very many people

00:02:18.110 --> 00:02:23.077
like that. And Denny Sanford, one of
Arizona state, means to me an

00:02:23.110 --> 00:02:30.547
opportunity presented by this fine
institution to take my ideas forward

00:02:30.580 --> 00:02:37.416
into the world and create new and
better world for Children of very young

00:02:37.449 --> 00:02:42.057
age as well as on up through college.
The teachers coming out of uh,

00:02:42.090 --> 00:02:47.867
schools will have the inspiration to
and and the tools to create

00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:53.650
inspiration for the young people going
through their schools.
