@JeffDean @robotsmarts Congrats to Ayanna. Spelman leveling up with robotics x HBCU leadership is a good look for everyone involved

@JeffDean @robotsmarts actually a legendary hire. Spelman + robotics + Ayanna feels like a cheat code for the next decade.

@JeffDean @robotsmarts Absolutely — a fantastic hire. Spelman doubling down on AI + ethics leadership signals a major strategic shift for HBCU tech pipelines.

@JeffDean @robotsmarts respected every step shes made in robotics. this move makes sense in a way most admin picks dont

@JeffDean @robotsmarts Robotics goes from peripheral to priority when the person running the institution actually understands the field. Most colleges still treat it as elective. Big signal from Spelman.

@JeffDean @robotsmarts big move for spelman. shes gonna bring real tech vision to the role

@wuodarek @SpelmanCollege Google it I. D. I. O. T
