The d.school is a hub for innovators at Stanford. Students and faculty in engineering, medicine, business, law, the humanities, sciences, and education find their way here to take on the world’s messy problems together. Human values are at the heart of our collaborative approach. We focus on creating spectacularly transformative learning experiences, and inevitably the innovations follow. Along the way, our students develop a process for reliably producing creative solutions to nearly any challenge.

Andy Spade

I had no interest or desire to learn about fashion and other media before I watched Andy Spade's talk. I'm not a diehard fan of theirs. The way he thinks about marketing in a guerilla type fashion is truly the inspiring part. I encourage everyone to watch the first video of this series, at least!
