Most people know @Reddit as the $27 billion dollar company. Almost nobody knows about Mark White In 2004, @alexisohanian was at an entrepreneurship conference in Singapore when he pitched his UVA Commerce professor an idea over drinks. White had seen hundreds of student pitches. He told Ohanian it was one of the best he'd ever heard. Ohanian emailed his roommate Steve Huffman that night: drop everything, we need to do this. Huffman had been planning grad school. Ohanian had been planning law school. Neither of them went. That idea became Reddit. Mark White is my professor today. I sit in class today where every lecture my mind wanders to that night in Singapore... a professor who could have nodded politely and moved on, but instead told Ohanian to go all in. Who wanted to join the board. Who already knew people to call for capital, that's not just encouragement, that's belief. He is the best professor I've ever had and honestly, after seeing this email, it makes complete sense. The same energy he brings to the classroom is exactly what Ohanian needed in that bar in Singapore.

All it takes is acting on your ideas Reddit is now worth $27 billion.

Isaiah Hamilton is considered Canada’s next rising basketball star.  Some call him the best prospect since RJ Barrett & Andrew Wiggins. How does he deal with it?

As a professor who studies the legal cannabis industry, moving from Colorado to Virginia in 2019 was the equivalent of going back in time. But after many years of delay, Virginia is likely to have a legal adult-use commercial market in place by the end 2026. Busy times ahead!

A Virginia delegate filed a bill to legalize and regulate recreational marijuana sales while also increasing the amount of cannabis that adults can possess under the state's current noncommercial legalization law. marijuanamoment.net/new-virginia-b…

Always fun to bring your son to work, especially to learn about leadership from @Pacers head coach (and @UVA alumnus) Rick Carlisle at @UVAMcIntire.
