Updates: Things I’m Doing & Things I’m Reading

It’s getting to the end of the semester, but a lot of stuff has been happening.

Things I’m Doing: 

  • My internship at UMass Press has been going well – I’ve spent the majority of my semester developing their new blog, which was launched earlier this week. It’s given me a chance to really delve into scholarly publishing and research a number of publications by the Press in the last few years. Check out the blog here!
  • I went to see Angela Davis last Monday! As expected, she was a phenomenal speaker greeted by a standing ovation before and after her presentation. The Massachusetts Daily Collegian has a good summary of the key points in her address. 
  • I also went to the Five College Digital Humanities Speaker Series presentation with D. Fox Harrell – you can read my reflection here or the Storify by 5CollDH here
  • I got to use Google Glass, despite it being way past its prime.
