Denzel Washington Donates $2 million to Fordham

Actor and philanthropist Denzel Washington has donated $2 million to Fordham University undergraduate acting program.  The 1977 Fordham University graduate said  in a statement,  “I wanted to create the Denzel Washington Endowed Scholarship and Chair in Theatre at Fordham in order to offer the next generation of students positive influences. Phylicia Rashad, as the inaugural holder of the chair, will provide the care, compassion and that extra push to help take students where they’re meant to go.”  Rashad, a Tony-award winning actress,  has started teaching the course ‘Creating A Character’ at Fordham.

Fordham University is hoping to announce a recipient for the scholarship this fall.  It’s good to see Denzel giving back in a big way.

The End of An Icon

Steve Jobs the founder of Apple, died peacefully at his home last night surrounded by family.  This is the end of an era as we know it.   An innovator well ahead of his time, we can now only wonder what the technological future holds for all of us.  He saw what the 21st century could become back in late 1970’s and made his vision a global reality.

Steve Jobs was one of the greatest innovators in the history of technological invention.  Keeping up with technology, having the latest tech gadgets and being technologically advanced all became a cool thing to do and be because of Jobs.  How will anyone measure up to that?  They won’t.

His death is a loss to us all.  He changed the way we saw and currently see, the future.  He made us realize that the future is now.  Everyday living was no longer the same because of him and our technical future will no longer be the same without him.
