very well acquainted with a s. You obviously in the Valley of the Sun, but
it became much more acquainted by one of your alumni Greg trias who
introduced me to Michael Crowe. And that was the start of a several great
relationships. I'm a pioneer, new ideas and new thoughts and new programs
and the like and s you gave me the opportunity to bring forth to that I
feel are so instrumental to the world for the future. One is the Sanford
Harmony program being developed by dr rick Babes in the school of family
and social dynamics. The other one is to teach for America inc of teach
for America into the school of Education run by mary corner. And those two
programs are in fact going to change change the world. So Denny Sanford is
one of these really unusual human beings. He uh, is a person who is self
made, uh, brings himself up, conceptualize his business enterprises,
advances those business enterprises to wild levels of success. And then he
uh makes a lot of money and then he says, you know what I'm gonna do, I'm
gonna take all that money and I'm going to invest all of it to help people
to have a better life. Because what he's really interested in is Children
being more successful, Children learning better Children having better
teachers, Children having an opportunity to grow up and be educated in an
environment where they're safe and secure. So he's working with us, not
just through his investments but through his hard drive for us to produce
not only academic products, but for us to also produce products that
change people's lives and generate all the economic activity that a
business represents for a community, but also how to make investments that
actually change the outcome of our society. There aren't very many people
like that. And Denny Sanford, one of Arizona state, means to me an
opportunity presented by this fine institution to take my ideas forward
into the world and create new and better world for Children of very young
age as well as on up through college. The teachers coming out of uh,
schools will have the inspiration to and and the tools to create
inspiration for the young people going through their schools.
