Michigan State University President Lou Anna K. Simon was the featured speaker at the March, 2009, Howell Chamber "Good Morning Livingston."She was refreshingly positive and candid about MSU, their role in the higher educational landscape, and the current mindset of the current culture.
:: MSU - She reminded us of their founding principle, "Good enough for the powerful, open to the poorest." She referred to MSU as the "Magic Johnson" of universities. Magic was a fantastic scorer but he was also a key player who wanted to see his teammates succeed by providing them with assists.
:: Current Mindset and approaching solving problems - We need to adopt the philosophy of having Silver Buckshot solutions in a Silver Bullet world where people want immediate solutions. When we simply shoot with buckshot we will hit (solve) what we can and make mid course directions to solve the next one.
