A month ago we hosted our first ever TEDx event on campus around the theme of inviting divergence. To diverge is to move or to extend in different directions form a common point of view. As a non-traditional university, we invited multiple staff, faculty, and guests to share their divergent ideas with the world through TED-style talks.
Below are all the TEDx talks that cover education, mentorship, non-profits, game design, language learning, and more.
