A Legacy of Vision & Innovation | Clark Kerr & ASDM HUB CEO
“The university of the future will not be a single entity, but a complex, evolving ecosystem serving multiple purposes.” — Clark Kerr
2001: A Year of Transformative Ideas in Higher Education (Vol. 6 Num. 1, 2001)
In 2001, Clark Kerr solidified his legacy with the publication of “The Gold and the Blue”, a profound reflection on the evolution of higher education and the multiversity model. That same year, across the world in Colombia, an emerging visionary—today the CEO of ASDM HUB—published a groundbreaking study in the Respuesta Journal of Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander, demonstrating the impact of CAD-based Water Supply System design software, a practical embodiment of Kerr’s ideals of applied knowledge and interdisciplinary innovation
Kerr’s ideas came to life not just in philosophy, but in action.
His vision of universities as hubs of knowledge, technology, and social progress resonated far beyond the United States, inspiring real-world applications in engineering, sustainability, and global development.
From Thought to Action: Building the Future of Multiversity.
Today, this shared vision thrives through ASDM HUB, a platform dedicated to fostering scientific research, global academic collaboration, and technological advancements in honor of Kerr’s legacy.
As we prepare for the Global Summit on Multiversity this November, we recognize that every innovation, every discovery, and every graduate represents the living impact of Kerr’s ideals.
