Internet is relatively young, and the mature version we've used since the exclusion of dial-up, has only existed for about 20 years. The digital world is not only a "simulation" of reality, but it is one of the most widely available inventions for consumers to purchase.

Websites are more like a 'digital tools' rather than digital locations, we use domain addresses to visit the site, but other than that it's just language that equates it to a digital world. We are tool-beings, constantly using what little information we have to communicate through language and semiotics. It is not only technological advancement, but the perception of 'digital tools', that we've become more machine.

When education becomes unaffordable, we find "budget friendly" digital tools to educate ourselves. Education is the highest paid-for commodity in America. As servers and websites are constructed with various digital tools for learning, they eventually become profitable, and then commoditized, by subscriptions, e-course fees, etc.

Independent digital e-courses on Youtube, are just as readily available, and even more budget friendly than the other digital tools often gatekept by subscriptions. But this fastfood of digital education has also become just as extractive, resulting in more watered-down forms of education to maintain consistent engagement and outer sales.

As tuition is the highest paid-for commodity in America.

Micro-Universities are needed in America, so it is also necessary to communicate the context of the higher educational system's price points we abide by and live within.

As we briefed in Agentic Governance Models, state commonwealth and governing schoolboards are also outdated systems. Many objectives can raise flags as too trendy, politically shifting every four years, too conservative, or too appeasing to groups.

Current President Trump’s 2025–2026 education agenda focuses on abolishing the federal Department of Education to return control to states, promoting universal school choice, and eliminating empathetic policies that can be seen as trendy, without merit.

Elon Musk, owner of Tesla & X Corp. & Mark Zuckerberg, owner of Meta, Inc. are both extremely wealthy and powerful and have the financial capability to build anything.

Both own and facilitate Montessori schools, which deliver child-centered, educational approaches that focus on; hands-on learning, zero-tech, and multi-age classrooms.

While Elon Musk's Astra Nova private school is within regulation, Mark Zuckerberg's Bicken Ben School was not, according to a 2025 WIRED report based on 1,665 pages of local government documents.

Import context is this was not just one building or a room in a mansion, but a cluster of 5 out of the 11 $5 houses owned by Zuckerberg in the area. Residents say that complaints went mostly unheard for a long time due to the status of Zuckerberg, owner of Meta Inc.

A [deleted] reddit comment had this to say: "How funny that even very wealthy people even hate the spearhead echelon of the extremely wealthy."

One could argue this is for privacy, but this can also be interpreted as a sign that other private, state-run education systems are simply unsatisfactory, outdated, and broken.

Funding for the lower forms of public education is done through taxation. But not all taxes are equal. During development and post-segregation era, a simple "we ain't paying taxes if they're going to those negroes" became the progenitor and core thesis of our divisive school tax systems, tipping culture, and healthcare.

These flawed aspects of our society have been ignored for so long, that they've become tradition and culture. Despite being inherently flawed, we've yet to change things in America that are clearly undeveloped ideologies across the other developed nations.

These forms of segregation of wealth and power have been inherited by us today.

Housing Redlining and Its Lingering Effects on Education Opportunity

In the early 20th century, the federal government engaged in housing "redlining"-a practice that conditioned access to federally backed home loans on the perceived economic health of a neighborhood and used demographic factors such as race in those decisions.

https://www.heritage.org

Due to redlining, not only have educational resources been systemically stripped from public schools, they've always stunted the grow of Black-American intellectual growth.

When we surround ourselves with too many intelligence forms that are not focused on the same mission as us, we are pulled down to the average IQ level of the group.

But when we are systemically placed in a cage with a lack of resources, we're sometimes forced to fight against our family, our brothers, and our neighbors just to survive.

The Transcendentalist movement was a philosophical, and social movement in the 1830s–1850s in New England. The transcendentalist movement emphasized individual intuition, and the inherent divinity of both nature and humanity.

It was a call for spiritual meaning and cultural in a world that was becoming obsessed with gold and materialism during the major railroad expansion and the gold rush.

At this time, Psychology was non-existent. Technology was non-existent. And this was only about 75 years ago. Time moves very fast once we start paying attention.

It was seen as a movement fighting against the materialism that was proliferating at the time during the railroad expansion and the gold rush.

Max Planck, the founder of the Quantum theory and arguable one of the smartest scientists of our humanity thus far, has said that. "Genius is driven by an individual, lonely pursuit towards truth rather than a collective effort."

While a Micro-University has the capabilities of a curated private school run by billionaires, it should also be accessible to a variety of different wealth classes.

Max Planck also said: "Science advances one funeral at a time — that new truths don't win by convincing opponents, but by outlasting them."

And like the transcendental movement, we must directly challenge and oppose the modern groupthink with a semiotic, a symbol, a brand capable of outlasting everyone.

Being Held Accountable for Your Goals - Alumline

Two researchers at Harvard have spent nearly 30 years studying the reasons that we tend to fall short of our goals and have given us brilliant solutions for reversing the natural human tendencies that cause it.

Accountability requires us to first admit that Student Loans are f*cking stupid.

Mental Wealth Academy, Inc. is building it's foundation as an educational brand and digital tool capable of encompassing and catering to radical ideas, ones that challenge the status quo of society eloquently, with precision and accuracy.

Another one of the problems for this currently is the dwindling literacy levels due to addictive short-form content. The average ACT scores have hit 30-point lows.

It's terrible that these issues aren't spoken about. As political debate becomes more like theatre with Trump's dancing, Biden's ramblings, and sideshow entertainment purchased and contracted as greater-than-life entertainment that's nothing more than a distraction.

A Micro-University challenges and opposes all of these ideas through it's 12-Week Classroom, and campaigns itself as an intellectual refreshment for modern day woes.

If modern education is just a pursuit of wealth and credentials rather than true comprehension, intellectualism stops being attractive. The costs, the wealth gap, the endless scroll of addictive entertainment - they all conspire against genuine learning.

So what does a Micro-University look like?

An 8-12 week program teaching philosophy, hands-on development, thinking systems, and politics - drawing from some of the sharpest minds already creating viral content. The idea is to leverage entertainment's pull as a catalyst for depth. No busywork. Just dense, curated information.

A core team of 3-5 handles operations, supported by AI-human collaboration through Agentkit. Minimal bureaucracy. Maximum adaptability.

Faculty rotate through in short residencies - a week at a time, 5-10 per course cycle. These aren't tenure-track professors. They're radical thinkers, recognized experts, creators who've already built audiences. The program gains legitimacy not from institutional pedigree but from the quality of minds passing through it.

Gamified learning through quests and points - the user-facing layer of a deeper experimental learning platform. Preliminary testing showed high engagement with this model.

Identity verification through LinkedIn keeps the cohort intimate and accountable. No anonymous lurkers diluting the community. This solves a problem we've seen kill similar programs: unchecked remote access that turns a learning environment into a ghost town.

Token incentives run quietly underneath, abstracted away from the student experience. The focus stays on learning, emotional engagement, and psychological resilience - not on navigating blockchain complexity. Students learn crypto passively, through interaction with Azura and the reward mechanics, not through tutorials.

Under the hood: Ethereum smart contracts handling reward distribution. Permanent storage rails ensuring curriculum and achievements persist beyond any single institution's lifespan.

The infrastructure outlasts us. That's the point.

Every session gets documented. Video equipment captures the experience - not as content for content's sake, but as proof of concept. Partner brands and investor logos sit next to ours in the footage, building legitimacy through visible association. This feeds directly into Phase 4: university partnerships and replication.

Prizes incentivize action and cement the experience, but they're carefully calibrated. Too generous and they overpower the learning. The goal is small, digestible rewards - enough to motivate without turning the program into a game show.

We ran a 30-person cohort over 4 weeks, using design as the subject. The content landed. The feedback was clear: beneficial material, but difficult to meet individual needs at scale.

The pivot came early in our design process: stop teaching labor skills. We're building proximity to tools, ideas, and respected thinkers - regardless of location or wealth class.

For lower income, this requires more internet etiquette.

Twelve weeks gives students breathing room. Time to absorb, to mingle outside designated sessions, to let ideas settle before the next one arrives.

The secondary goal is making the brand itself attractive. Different from a traditional university, but carrying the same weight - bridging commitment with agency, credibility with intellectual refreshment.

“But to be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Our pilot data showed strong preference for kinesthetic, hands-on learning. This aligns with Berkeley UXR research linking cursor movement patterns to cognitive engagement and mental health indicators. The thesis holds: people need proximity to ideas, tools, and leaders. They need distance from the black mirror.

The ultimate goal of the Micro-University is making the brand attractive. It should be different from a traditional University, but it should contain the same feeling, it should bridge commitment, to providing students agency, and intellectual refreshment.

Directly challenging the digital world aims to forcefully create a higher-context culture with more spirituality, and more togetherness.

When the transcendental movement ended, it shifted to abolition of slavery. Key members of the organization died and the movement was swallowed into another.

Just as Planck says, science moves forward one grave at a time...

The Micro-University is built to outlast us.

Because the old thinkers are dying. But the new ideas don't have to.
