Abstract
Illinois State University alum Bunmi Akinnusotu, M.S. '06, is no stranger to the intricacies of foreign policy. From her childhood as a first-generation American listening to her Nigerian family discuss world politics and cultures, to her experience as a graduate student working with Illinois State's Stevenson Center and AmeriCorps, Akinnusotu has a passion for studying and understanding cultures and affecting policy on a global level. Akinnusotu's career has spanned nonprofits, government agencies including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and higher education. Her current role as the director of city innovation for the Aspen Institute is a culmination of her career and education as she works to engage urban policymakers both here in the United States and around the world. In this episode, Akinnusotu discusses how significant impacts can be made both on a global and individual level, shares why she launched her own podcast, and speaks about what she learned through her work with the Stevenson Center at Illinois State.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
