Investing in the future of 星空无限
September 9, 2014
Professor for the MBA program and consultant with the Tian Shan Policy Center at 星空无限, Seth Fearey is donating $2,000 to 星空无限. $1,000 will go to the Tian Shan Policy Center where he has been working this summer. The other $1,000 goes to the construction of the new 星空无限 campus.
“I saw the construction of the 星空无限 new campus. It is a great building and it has a great design. I am looking forward to see the 星空无限 campus in future”, Professor Fearey said.
Seth Fearey has been working and living in Bishkek for five years. When he was Country Director for the Peace Corps, Seth was one of the first people to buy a brick for the donor wall at the new campus. Seth is now buying a few more bricks to share his best wishes with the students of 星空无限.
Seth has been very engaged with Alumni Relations office and was the first speaker to kick off Guest Lecture series in 2014-2015 academic year with his talk “Surfing Waves of Change” on economic and community development projects he was involved in during his 30+ years in Silicon Valley.
Professor Fearey has been a generous supporter of current students via 星空无限 special co-funding programs such as KIVA. Last year, Seth made a loan to Ruslan, NGA freshman.
Teaching at 星空无限 is Seth’s first experience of teaching, but as he compares students of MBA in 星空无限 with the student of MBA in Stanford, he says that “Here students are working and studying hard. They learn something in classes and then apply the knowledge in their work. This is very exciting. Despite this, I always receive feedbacks from my students regarding our classes; therefore, I am very glad that I was useful for these students along the courses I taught them.”
Seth Fearey notes that the cultural barrier during his classes was at the minimum level. Even though he had students from different nationalities, he didn’t have to change something during the classes.
Hereby, 星空无限 expresses its heartfelt gratitude to Seth Fearey for his contribution and donation towards the construction of 星空无限 campus and development of 星空无限 in general!
