Boston BYU Alumni Event

A couple of weeks ago we went to our first BYU Alumni- Boston Chapter event.  So fun!  We went with Michael and Sarah to hear Clayton Christensen in the Celtic's training center.  We had never heard him lecture and he gave a very interesting presentation on disruptive innovation and what it could mean for the world of higher education.

Here's the acclaimed Harvard Business School professor himself.  We forgot our camera, so this is taken from his website.  He is a great presenter.
We did get a few phone shots in the Celtic's locker room.  Who knew that Ray Allen was also a fan of Scott's favorite operating system?  Ok so it's probably used in the African philosophical sense, but still had to get a picture.

See how high the sinks are in the bathroom?

Their high tech training schedule

Scott did so well in the free-throw shooting contest!  He made 7 or of 10 in the first round to qualify him for the second round.

And he did amazingly well in the second round as well.  Made almost every shot.  And then an unlucky sequence in front of him caused him to get 6 points on a single miss. :(  Very unlucky.  We almost got that Rondo ball. :)

All in all it was a kind of random, but fun night out.  It's fun to be BYU alums in Boston!

  2. We love to hear about your two families doing stuff together. The sink in the locker room cracks me up as did the Ubuntu sign!

  3. No WAY! I just went to hear Clayton Christensen's presentation on Disruptive innovation on Thursday at the Hinckley Building. That' is too funny! The Ubuntu sign and the sinks are a crack up. And good job to Scott, that is pretty impressive! Very cool.
