Language matters. As the term snowflake spreads across our public discourse, we are creating a moral vacuum that doesn’t provide our college-age youth the education they deserve.

I got to talking to one of my colleagues here at Everipedia, the encyclopedia of everything, where I am now CIO, about future plans. I had the following idea.
We could create an Everipedia channel–basically, just a YouTube account, but owned by Everipedia and devoted to regularly posting new videos.
We could invite people to submit videos to us; if they’re approved, we put branding elements on them and post them. We share some significant amount of the monetization (most of it) with the creator.
We also feature the videos at the top of the Everipedia article about the topic.
Who knows what could happen, but what I hope would happen is that we’d get a bunch of subscribers, because of all the connections of the video makers (and Everipedia–we collectively have a lot of followers and a lot of traffic). And the more people we got involved, the greater the competition and the better the videos would be.
There are still huge opportunities in the educational video space–so many topics out there simply have no good free videos available.
Others must have organized group channels like this before, but I can’t think of who.
What do you think?
A Nebraska state college is found not liable by two courts after Tyler Thomas, a 19-year-old freshman, disappeared and was declared dead by a Nebraska court. A 29-year-old male student who resided in a dormitory room next to Thomas' room, was later charged with murder.
