Skunkworks University?

Dear Member, Following the meeting held by the Board of Directors, it was resolved that: - Skunkworks University be established with its headquarters in Kenya, - The Univesity offers professional programs which shall consist of sandwiched (Industrial and Academic) programs such as Doctor/Master/Bachelor/Diploma/Certificate in Ethical Hacking, Digital Forensics, Incident Handling, etc. - You, as a member, will take one or two of these roles: student/lecturer/instructor/supervisor. Relax! this is not a hoax but a food for thought. Shall we bearly remain to mailing list and/or tuesday meetings, or we plan to grow and develop? For example we could establish (not a faculty) but *Specific Interest Groups*like Software Development, Systems Administration, ICT Project Management, Security Wonking, Ethical Hacking, Incident Handling, Networking, Telecommunications, bla..bla.... Kigz.

I like the 'Skunkworks University' - we could make Kigunda DVC AA or something if not VC. On Wed, May 6, 2009 at 10:31 AM, Kigunda Mbogo <kigunda.mbogo@gmail.com>wrote:

I know for a fact that many form 4 leavers with a bone of IT in their body would most definitely join the "skunkworks" university... But the question usually boils down to the classical question the mice asked after weeks of brainstorming .... " Who will tie the bell around the cat's neck... ?" I hope our ideas will one day come to that question...

Good idea though we need to start from primary goals, vision, mission and purpose of the University. Then we consider clustering around roles. o. On Wed, May 6, 2009 at 11:45 AM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:

Interesting idea, which can be brought to reality, maybe start with a college since there are some strict procedures I believe for a University. I'll be Dean of Students - incharge of only the female students :-) ./Ok3ch On Wed, May 6, 2009 at 11:56 AM, omolo omolo <omolo@egerton.ac.ke> wrote:

Oooookhkaay! So far there are only a few female students who'd transfer their credits to the College, if that is what it becomes. Are you sure you want to manage those people? Seriously though, I believe the OP has a dream worth pursuing in the line of "interest groups". I am thinking we can start by registering with the aim of conducting/offering specialized training as consultants and expand beyond that as time goes. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "Clothes make the man.

Another great idea for the skunks!
