IDEA Center offers entrepreneurial opportunities

first_imgThe IDEA Center, located just outside of campus, may be a long walk away for many students — but making the trip might be worth it.This semester, the IDEA Center has many opportunities for undergraduate and graduate entrepreneurs, including startup coaching and a pre-accelerator program. Students must apply to the pre-accelerator program, a six-week intensive curriculum where students focus their ideas and create an initial product, culminating in an opportunity to pitch a product to small-scale investors. Trinity Reilly | The Observer The IDEA Center, pictured above, allows undergraduate students to work with various design tools and creative strategies to create their own product.Among the programs offered, the most accessible is startup coaching. Patti Reinhardt, director of student engagement at the IDEA Center, said any student can simply go to the IDEA Center’s website to submit an idea and begin the coaching process.“Students who have an idea can actually submit their ideas through our pipeline,” Reinhardt said. “They can get startup coaching, access to workshops and pitching opportunities, which include connections, advice and small amounts of funding. And we take no equity in student ideas at the IDEA Center.”Sophomore Spencer Koehl is a senior startup coach with the IDEA Center this year. He began working with the IDEA Center last year as a venture coach. This year, Koehl said, the coaching program wants to focus on encouraging student entrepreneurs to truly take initiative themselves with coaches’ support.“We’re going to give you the tools to show and convince investors that you have something worth building,” Koehl said.During weekly coaching sessions, he said, students do anything from theorizing about a problem that needs solving to interviewing random people about their product in order to reach the ultimate goal of creating an idea ready to pitch to investors.“You learn a lot about how to interview and how to create value out of talking to people,” Koehl said. “And the program is great with public speaking — you have to learn how to pitch, how to design pitch decks and how to answer questions on the fly. And how to sell people on your vision.”As students figure out their vision and begin to craft their initial product, they often head to Matt Leevy, director of the IDEA Center Innovation Lab. There, students have access to industrial design services, 3D printing, laser cutting and more — all for free. The lab is only two years old, but its layout has already changed over 15 times thanks to giant Lego brick walls that lend to the dynamic environment.“Specifically within this Innovation Lab concept, we have created a number of resources to facilitate entrepreneurship within the physical product space, so anybody with a physical product — big or small, by the way — and we are here to pour gasoline on that fire and get it going,” Leevy said.All students need to do is email Leevy to get the process started. At the lab, they can tinker around, discover available tools and begin working.There is one catch: once students begin selling their products, they then have to pay for any equipment they use at the lab, like any real business. But, Leevy said, that is the point. Ultimately, the IDEA Center wants to get undergrads to a place where they can start their own business. So far, around 20 student businesses have begun in collaboration with the lab, he said.“The IDEA Center, really, is just a hub for driven, motivated people who want to make the world a better place,” Koehl said. “That’s why I get out of bed every morning and I’m like, ‘I love this job.’ It’s meeting all these different people and getting all this incredible experience.”Tags: design, IDEA Center, innovation lab, student businesses, venture coachlast_img read more

Cantero says goodbye

first_img Cantero says goodbye Associate EditorThe send-off for Justice Raoul Cantero was a warm one, held September 4 in the Florida Supreme Court room filled with family and friends. Gov. Charlie Crist was among those stepping forward to praise Cantero’s intellect, sincerity, and dedication as he leaves the court, after a six-year term as its youngest and first Hispanic justice, for private practice in Miami. “You have served with incredible distinction and honor. And what you have done for the people, along with your wonderful, esteemed colleagues, is extraordinary,” Crist said. “Public service is a calling. And you have another calling now, and we all appreciate that.”Cantero was praised by Florida Bar President Jay White, who called him “intellectual, dedicated, and sincere,” and lauded by several in attendance for his work on behalf of the Bar’s Commission on Professionalism and Joint Committee on Mentoring and the Florida State University College of Law.“Justice Cantero, I can tell you, the judiciary, the lawyers, and the citizens of the state of Florida have really been blessed to have you serve on our highest court,” White said.Speakers also noted his introduction of 3 p.m. Cuban coffee breaks to the court and his tendency to be the first to start singing karaoke at any party, and fellow Justice Barbara Pariente pointed out a slapstick sense of humor that has Cantero occasionally pretending to walk into street signs.“He is the most social of our justices,” Pariente said. “He’s one of the funniest people I’ve ever met, and he has cracked me up for the last six years.”She added that “his votes on this court have never, ever reflected an agenda either personal or political.“This is how it should be,” Pariente said. “This is our ideal. But it is not always easy. Justice Cantero is the essence of what we mean by judicial independence.”Cantero’s daughter Elisa, an eighth- grader at St. Theresa School in Coral Gables, took the podium about halfway through the tribute.“I read some newspaper articles that said Justice Cantero’s children probably didn’t realize what a big sacrifice Papa had made for us. I may be 13 but I know what my dad gave up for me and my brothers,” she said tearfully. “That we were actually moving (back to Miami) came as a surprise to me, but that he did it for us because we missed our family didn’t come as a surprise. Papa is always thinking about us, before his work and his needs.”“I love you up to heaven and still more,” Elisa said.Cantero’s fellow justices made jokes about his distaste for lengthy speeches, and he kept his own response short.“Becoming a judge was a dream I had had ever since I’d served as a law clerk to Edward Davis, a federal judge in Miami, whose humility and grace inspired me to seek to be like him,” Cantero said.He didn’t plan on leaving so soon, but “I’ve learned that God’s plans are not always our plans, but if we allow him to lead us, our destinations will be the right ones.“I recognize that this is a difficult time to leave. The judicial branch is under tremendous pressure to do as much, or more, with less. I can only hope that the Florida Legislature acknowledges our position as an equal branch of government and recognizes the critical need for funding the courts,” said Cantero, will join White & Case in Miami as a partner October 1. “Despite my departure, I will continue to advocate on behalf of the judiciary. As I leave, I can’t help but have a sense of unfinished business.”The tribute highlighted a deep friendship between Justices Cantero and Pariente that developed during Cantero’s time on the court.“We were next-door neighbors and some of my most memorable moments here were debating different cases with her,” Cantero said. “The remarkable thing was that we weren’t necessarily trying to win an argument or convince each other, but just trying together to find the right solution.”After Cantero and his family settled in Tallahassee, Pariente underwent treatment for breast cancer. At the time of her diagnosis five years ago, Pariente said, “I had the entire Cantero extended family praying for me,” Pariente said. “They’re Catholic. I’m Jewish. I was thrilled.”“You have made your mark on this court and in history, and not just as the first Cuban-American justice,” said Pariente, pulling her judge’s robes off her shoulders to reveal the guayabera shirt Cantero gave her, and the other justices, at his investiture ceremony in October 2002. “Although you will no longer be our colleague on this court, you will always be our friend.” September 15, 2008 Kim MacQueen Associate Editor Regular News Cantero says goodbyelast_img read more

Filing of Bar Rules Proposals

December 18, 2020

first_img Filing of Bar Rules Proposals March 1, 2016 By Regular News Filing of Bar Rules Proposalscenter_img The Board of Governors of The Florida Bar gives notice of filing with the Supreme Court of Florida, on or about April 1, a petition to amend the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar. The full text of the proposed amendments is printed below. Some are substantive revisions; others are merely editorial refinements. A copy of the proposed amendments may be requested by contacting the Rules Administrative Coordinator, The Florida Bar, 651 East Jefferson St., Tallahassee 32399-2300 or calling (850) 561-5600, ext. 5751. Members who desire to comment on these proposed amendments may do so within 30 days after the filing of the Bar’s petition. Comments should be filed directly with the clerk of the Supreme Court of Florida, and a copy must be served on the executive director of The Florida Bar. Rule 1-12.1, Rules Regulating The Florida Bar, governs these proceedings. RULES REGULATING THE FLORIDA BAR CHAPTER 4 RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT* * * SUBCHAPTER 4-1 CLIENT-LAWYER RELATIONSHIP* * * RULE 4-1.1 COMPETENCE A lawyer shall must provide competent representation to a client. Competent representation requires the legal knowledge, skill, thoroughness, and preparation reasonably necessary for the representation. COMMENT Legal knowledge and skillIn determining whether a lawyer employs the requisite knowledge and skill in a particular matter, relevant factors include the relative complexity and specialized nature of the matter, the lawyer’s general experience, the lawyer’s training and experience in the field in question, the preparation and study the lawyer is able to give the matter, and whether it is feasible to refer the matter to, or associate or consult with, a lawyer of established competence in the field in question. In many instances the required proficiency is that of a general practitioner. Expertise in a particular field of law may be required in some circumstances.A lawyer need not necessarily have special training or prior experience to handle legal problems of a type with which the lawyer is unfamiliar. A newly admitted lawyer can be as competent as a practitioner with long experience. Some important legal skills, such as the analysis of precedent, the evaluation of evidence and legal drafting, are required in all legal problems. Perhaps the most fundamental legal skill consists of determining what kind of legal problems a situation may involve, a skill that necessarily transcends any particular specialized knowledge. A lawyer can provide adequate representation in a wholly novel field through necessary study. Competent representation can also be provided through the association of a lawyer of established competence in the field in question.In an emergency a lawyer may give advice or assistance in a matter in which the lawyer does not have the skill ordinarily required where referral to or consultation or association with another lawyer would be impractical. Even in an emergency, however, assistance should be limited to that reasonably necessary in the circumstances, for ill-considered action under emergency conditions can jeopardize the client’s interest.A lawyer may accept representation where the requisite level of competence can be achieved by reasonable preparation. This applies as well to a lawyer who is appointed as counsel for an unrepresented person. See also rule 4-6.2. Thoroughness and preparationCompetent handling of a particular matter includes inquiry into and analysis of the factual and legal elements of the problem, and use of methods and procedures meeting the standards of competent practitioners. It also includes adequate preparation. The required attention and preparation are determined in part by what is at stake; major litigation and complex transactions ordinarily require more extensive treatment than matters of lesser complexity and consequence. The lawyer should consult with the client about the degree of thoroughness and the level of preparation required as well as the estimated costs involved under the circumstances. Maintaining competence*** CHAPTER 6 LEGAL SPECIALIZATION AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS*** SUBCHAPTER 6-10 CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENT RULE*** RULE 6-10.3 MINIMUM CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION STANDARDSEvery member except those exempt under rule 6-10.3(c)(4) and (5) shall subdivision (c) of this rule must comply and report compliance with the continuing legal education requirement.

Ray: An Unfair Chase…

October 19, 2020

first_imgAt the August Game Commission meeting one of Governor Lujan Grisham’s newly appointed Commissioners told of having met with trappers and opined that they were really nice guys. Well, I’m a nice person and my dogs are nice as well. This isn’t a personality contest. It is a about justice, fairness, ethics, and morality. It is about what is right. Hiding traps on our public lands isn’t. If you agree, you may visit http://www.wildlife.state.nm.us/commission/proposals-under-consideration/ to read about the inadequate changes to the trapping rules and for the link where you can submit your own written comments. We don’t accept that a little bit of thievery is OK as long as it happens to only a few people. A little bit of vandalism is still wrong and considered a crime now matter how much property is defiled. Fraud is not OK even if only a few are conned. These things are illegal because they are wrong. Trapping anywhere that others can be harmed is wrong too. I will never forget my dog’s screams. I have made a point to learn how to open a trap and thankfully, this one was a kind that I physically could open. I had her out within a minute. Still her foot and my hand were both injured in the frantic rescue. It felt like someone had committed an assault on me. It felt like violent crime. The only incidents the public knows about have been reported to TrapFreeNM.org, a coalition of conservation and animal protection groups. Trapping is legal nearly statewide with the approval of the State Game Commission by purchasing a $20 license. The Game Commission is now considering the closure of some limited areas to trapping, specifically the National Forest portion of the Sandia Mountains, the Organ mountains east of Las Cruces, a 1/2 mile on either side of the road from Santa Fe to the ski basin and from Taos to the ski valley and 1/2 mile from any official trailhead. Mary Katherine Ray is the volunteer Wildlife Chair for the Rio Grande Chapter of the Sierra Club. She lives, hikes, and photographs wildlife near her home in a remote part of Socorro County. If approved, it is wonderful that hikers and wildlife in these places won’t be at risk. But why should this not be true everywhere? Do animals in the Sacramento Mountains suffer any less? Are critically endangered Mexican wolves harmed or maimed by traps in the Gila not worthy of protection from trap injury? Are hikers like me in Socorro County, or near Chama, or in the Jemez away from population centers of no consequence?center_img Hikers, birdwatchers, and hunters are not required to stay only on roads or agency trails. These areas are all near populated places and presumably get high use. That any areas have been proposed for closure is a nod that traps and public use are not compatible. I was looking at birds in the wide canyon bottom. My camera was out and my two dogs were both leashed beside me. A road runs up one side of this canyon but I don’t like to walk on it- I don’t want to be where traffic might be. And interesting wildlife I like to view doesn’t confine itself just to roads. By MARY KATHERINE RAYRio Grande Chapter Sierra Club In recent years, dozens of hikers’ dogs have been caught in traps hidden on land open to the public, including my own. The number of reported incidents is most certainly just the tip of the iceberg. It is legal to hide a trap a mere 25 yards from a road or designated trail. As I found out to my dismay only 18 months ago, traps can also legally be placed right in the middle of a non-designated game trail when one of my dogs stepped in one hidden right in the path. It may still come as a surprise that today, in 2019, it is still actually legal in New Mexico to set a steel-jawed leg-hold trap or strangling wire snare in order to catch any one of 16 kinds of native wild animal that includes bobcats, foxes and badgers, for fun and profit.last_img read more

Berkeley to raise £50m for land purchase

first_imgThe London and southeast-based housebuilder said that the £50m placing, underwritten by UBS, would allow it to make purchases without going into debt.Tony Pidgley, chief executive, is known for his sharp sense of market timing. He called the top and bottom of the late 1980s and early 1990s housing boom and bust, and started a move out of volume housebuilding in 2005. The placing is equivalent to 5 per cent of existing share capital, and management said it would also abandon plans to return £3 a share to investors by 2014 as the money would be better invested in land. The shares rose 51p to close at 897?p.’They are positioning themselves to buy land at attractive prices in a market where the competition is saddled by debt,’ said Jon Bell of Shore Capital. ‘They have a competitive advantage and should be able to capitalise on quite an interesting opportunity.’Financial Times, The Independentlast_img read more
