5,500 graduates at @cornelluniversity for 2019. It took an hour for all of them to march in and I was so happy I spotted Jaime marching. We were prepared for rain but it was a beautiful day with the sun shining in the auditorium. What an amazing feeling to witness this special moment of our son who is part of this well respected school.

Convocation at Cornell 2019

By | Blogs | No Comments

Convocation with Bill Nye @billnye as speaker  Beautiful message and advice to graduating Seniors of 2019. ( Sorry about my footage ) Just listen to his message  William S. Nye ’77 – known to millions as Bill Nye the Science Guy – at Schoellkopf Field during Cornell’s 2019 Graduation Weekend. (Charlotte Lefkovitz ’19, chair of the Senior Convocation Committee)
“Bill Nye will inspire the Cornell Class of 2019 to be curious, informed, hopeful and empowered agents of positive change,” Lefkovitz said. “His platform of intellectual inquiry and pride in his Cornell education will make the weekend iconic and relevant for us as graduates. Having a fixture of our childhood serve as our steward into postgraduate life is exciting and feels very full circle.” As a science educator, engineer, comedian, television personality and author, Nye aims to foster a scientifically literate society and to help people appreciate the science that makes our world work.

Nye earned a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering at Cornell, and he has visited the university regularly in the 42 years since. From 2001-05, he served as a Frank H.T. Rhodes Visiting Professor.

In 2011, Nye designed and funded the 12-foot-diameter clock atop Rhodes Hall. A 14-inch disc on the clock face illuminates for several minutes each day at solar noon – when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky.
Early in his career, Nye was a Boeing engineer by day and a stand-up comedian by night. In 1986 he became a writer and performer on Seattle’s homegrown ensemble comedy show “Almost Live,” where his character Bill Nye the Science Guy was born. The show was broadcast in the half-hour “Saturday Night Live.” The character proved so popular that he earned his own show, “Bill Nye the Science Guy,” which became nationally syndicated in the 1990s. Nye now serves as CEO of the Planetary Society, the world’s largest space-interest group. It was co-founded by late Cornell astronomy professor Carl Sagan. #cornelluniversity #gobigred#billnye #billnyethescienceguy#h2hcornell #h2hpeople #h2hquotes

Filling cups with extra shots of good Starbucks Philippines lends support for Renovate to Educate project

Filling cups with extra shots of good Starbucks Philippines lends support for Renovate to Educate project

Starbucks partners (employees) are trained not only to pour an extra shot of good in each cup but also in everything they do. Now, Starbucks aims to inspire its partners to serve beyond stores and straight to communities where they are a part of. This is in line with the company’s goal to have 100% of its stores globally to participate in a community service starting 2020.

Starbucks is taking steps towards this commitment through celebrating the Global Month of Good annually every April. During this month, Starbucks partners from stores all over the world will lead projects that will help strengthen the communities they serve.

To commemorate the Global Month of Good in the Philippines, Starbucks began inspiring volunteerism among its partners by involving them in several community service projects since April. This time, the partners volunteered for the Renovate to Educate (RED) Project with long-time partner, Teach for the Philippines (TFP).

As a non-profit organization with a mission of providing quality education to Filipino children, TFP works together with Renovate to Educate to rehabilitate classrooms and facilities in public schools across the country.

Recently, a troop of close to 70 Starbucks partners from 26 stores visited the Agripino Manalo National High School in Pateros to refurbish chairs and tables and repaint facilities of the school which has been used as a voting center in the last elections.

By the end of the day, the partners were able to build ten bookshelves, repair and repaint seventy chairs, refurbish nine tables in the school canteen, and repaint an entire classroom and canteen.

Apart from their service through Renovate to Educate, Starbucks also offers more opportunities for their partners to volunteer through partnerships with other organizations, including Haribon Foundation and Habitat for Humanity.

Starbucks has continued to expand its business globally with thousands of stores in different countries. With this huge network, the brand aims to use its scale in doing good and to work towards its mission of nurturing the human spirit – one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time. By empowering each of its partners and stores to uplift their communities, Starbucks truly creates ripples of change.

About Starbucks Philippines

December 4, 1997, the Philippines had its first taste of the Starbucks Experience with its very first branch at the 6750 Ayala Building in Makati City. Starbucks has since won the hearts of the Filipinos. The opening of the 6750 Ayala store marked an important milestone in our history – the Philippines became the third market to open outside North America. The tradition of warm hospitality, constant need for connection, and love for coffee – these are the qualities that make Starbucks Coffee and the Filipino people a great culture fit.

To share in the experience, please visit us in our stores or online at www.starbucks.ph
