Just boarded my flight to Phoenix - I was walking to grab a coffee in the airport and saw a Boilermaker drinking a glass of wine. It was 7:00am. So, yeah, we’re ready. #BoilerUp #FinalFour

What is Mason Gillis thinking when Zach Edey banks in his first career three-pointer? "Oh Lordy..."

Let’s. Go. 🚂🏀🖤💛

Grateful for the volunteer time off from @agrilytics to judge @NationalFFA Ag Comm contest presentations alongside a wonderful crew from @BASFAgProducts! Thank you to all the staff and volunteers who help make these contests possible for the students!

Hey, Purdue University students, it's Career Fair time! Our team will be on campus Tuesday, October 3rd from 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM. To learn more about our summer internship opportunities or apply today, check out this link:loom.ly/Lclj6IY @purdueag

As combines roll, it's crucial to make observations that will help in planning for next season. Dr. Kess Berg, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder, discusses essential factors from inside the cab, exclusively on Brownfield Ag News:loom.ly/p576dHY @brownfield

So excited to see so many students interested in @PurdueASEC at the Preview Day!!

As we near the final chapter of this season's story, there are some important lessons to be learned in our fields. Travis Kimmel, Director of Agronomic Technology, shared his study guide for in-field observations as you're making 2024 plans. Check it out: loom.ly/rSTwzfE

On this week's #FieldFriday, our Grower Direct teams spanning from Indiana to Iowa had in-field agronomy trainings looking at environmental mechanisms and talking about the opportunities & challenges of this season. Tag us in your #FieldFriday and let us know what you're seeing!

In 1971, Phil Knight was teaching accounting at Portland State University. One day, he overheard a graphic design student say that she couldn’t afford to take a painting class. Knight paid her $35 to design a logo for his start-up shoe company. When he saw the design, he said, “I don't know if I like it, but maybe it will grow on me.” Knight didn’t have time to fuss over the logo. "We had a deadline," he explains. He had signed a contract with a factory to produce 3,000 pairs of Nike's first shoe. "Production was starting on the shoe that Friday." Before then, they needed a logo. “You don’t like it?” Knight’s chief operating officer asked of the student’s design. “I don’t love it,” Knight said, “but we’re out of time. It’ll have to do.” Takeaway 1: It's said that if not for constraints and deadlines, nothing would get made. George Lucas, for instance, worked on drafts of the first Star Wars for years. "I never arrived at a degree of satisfaction where I thought the screenplay was perfect," he said. But then he struck a deal with a movie executive from United Artists—"At that point, it became an obligation," Lucas said. "If I hadn't been forced to shoot the film, I would doubtless still be rewriting it now." Takeaway 2: At Nike's IPO in 1980, Phil Knight gave the student who designed the Swoosh 500 shares. She never sold. Since the IPO, there have been 7 stock splits. So those 500 shares have become 64,000 shares. At the time of this writing, Nike is at $110/share. $110/share x 64,000 shares = $7,040,000. It makes me think of something Robert Greene once told me: “Above all else, focus on acquiring knowledge and skills. Knowledge and skills are like gold—a currency you will transform into something more valuable than you can imagine." Follow @bpoppenheimer for more content like this!
