Over the years, Tim Stephens has been approached by universities to serve on boards, speak, and even become a faculty member. Despite his strong credentials, each time he would politely decline. It wasn’t because of a lack of interest, rather he didn’t feel comfortable.
You see, Stephens lacked one thing; a college degree. In spite of his professional accomplishments, he felt it would be awkward being a voice as a media expert without it. Now, he can.
Stephens’ education at UAB spans more than two decades, multiple states, and numerous stops along the way.

T. Eaton Co. Limited, or more commonly known as Eaton’s, was founded in Toronto in 1869, by Timothy Eaton . It was one of the most successful department store retailers in Canada during the late 1800s to mid 1900s. Timothy Eaton’s success can be attributed to his strategy of appealing to the upper working class with disposable income and lower middle class as this reached a larger consumer base. Moreover, his introduction of the mail-order catalogue, his determination and detailed attention to the company’s accounting and finances, the increased urbanization and living standards, along with many more factors, led to Eaton’s success. Despite Eaton’s downfall in the 1970s, and finally bankruptcy in 1999 , it is undeniable that Eaton made some innovative changes to the retail landscape that differentiated itself, and are still present to this day. Firstly, all goods were sold at fixed cash prices, such that there would be no bartering, or price negotiations; so goods could not be purchased on credit. The introduction of the money-back guarantee was effective in gaining the loyalty of its customers: “Goods Satisfactory or Money Refunded” .

When we do not agree with program policies, we shall attempt to effect change through constructive action within the organization.” Aisha has all the right to speak up. She should not technically defy the schools policy but she should be able to talk to someone of higher management

Frances Jackson Coppin’s letter to Mr. Frederick Douglass captures a passion that continues to stir in the hearts of professors, who strive to uplift the human “race” of students as they obtain an undergraduate education. Answering the call to teach, many new faculty are assigned multiple duties that can cause both excitement and fear. Learning how to balance discovery, application, integration, and teaching (Boyer, 1990, p. 17-19), along with service to university and local communities, may all appear overwhelming.
