Alpha Scholars
A study universe (videos, text) that Miguel wants to build — formerly called, by mistake, “Off Scholars”.
- Mission: MGALPHA — a group of people + measurable objective.
- Destination of 22 hours/week (see June 11).
Do not confuse with the scholars from MS&E research, who live in Teachers (MSE).
