iMentor Builds Digital and Personal Bonds Between Students and Role Models

Great story on Thirteen's MetroFocus about the iMentor program and, specifically, how it works with the Academy for Software Engineering, where I also serve as a mentor in the iMentor program.

Here is a video from the show about iMentor at AFSE:



Here is another video with the interview with iMentor CEO, Mike O'Brien:



Incidentally, iMentor was also mentioned in the slideshow accompanying President Obama's State of the Union address earlier this week:

American Experience Clinton Documentary

If you get a chance, be sure to watch the awesome job American Experience did with its documentary about Bill Clinton, simply titled "Clinton".

As someone that was 19-years old in 1992, Bill Clinton was the first person I ever voted for, and I even got to shake his hand during his re-election campaign in early 1996. The Clinton presidency was an important period in my life as it started while I was a college sophomore contemplating my future and ended while I was shopping for an engagement ring to give to the woman to whom I am married today. Watching all 3 hours and 35 minutes really brought back some great memories about my 20's and also how great the 1990's were compared to today.

Here is part 1 of 27. Please take the time to watch this documentary. You will be glad you did.



Watch Clinton on PBS. See more from American Experience.
