Odessa College President Gregory D. Williams was selected to be one of the inaugural, featured speakers for Odessa’s new TEDx Optimist Park – a TEDx talk organized by the Community of Odessa. TEDx was created in the spirit of TED's mission, "ideas worth spreading." The TEDx Program is designed to help communities, organizations, and individuals spark conversation and connection through local TED-like experiences.
The TEDx Optimist Park videos have recently been uploaded to YouTube and you can view them here. Featured speakers include leaders in education and in the community who have defied the odds, embraced service leadership, and have found the path to fulfilling lives and careers.
