6 Students. 1 Professor. 3 External Speakers.

This is TEDxGeorgetown: Tipping Point

A tipping point, according to Malcolm Gladwell’s book, The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make A Big Difference, is “the moment of critical mass, the threshold, the boiling point.”

Here are some 4E examples of Tipping Points:

– When you find the right gif, after searching for three straight classes.


– When your computer dies just before you find out who gets the final rose.


– When you finally get a great TEDxGeorgetown photo two years later.

Shoutout to 4E star and TEDxGeorgetown co-chair, D.J. Angelini.
