Hi, Ruth. A follow-up to my question about buy-in. You explained that “UCLA has a strong and continuing culture of being developers” - and I know you have not spent your entire career at UCLA, so you might not be able to answer this - but do you know if UCLA has always had that “developer” culture? Or was it something that happened over time? If the latter, do you have a sense of how that comfort level came to be? And/Or do you have any guidance for how to cultivate a similar comfort level when it comes to institutions that might be more conservative in their approach to embracing new technologies?
