I was talking recently with Aiddy Phomvisay, who’s been director of Central Campus for about a year now. It was a Monday afternoon, and that morning he had asked a student how he was doing. “Tired,” the student told him. “I worked all weekend.” After Phomvisay asked the student where he worked — expecting to hear about a fast-food job — he was impressed to hear the student describe the computer coding business he had set up and that he had been busy all weekend with a coding project. “I shouldn’t be surprised,” Phomvisay told me. “That’s just the kind of kids we’ve got here.”
