Absolutely thrilled that Diane Jakacki and my edited volume, *What We Teach When We Teach DH*, has just launched in its open-access version on the Debates on DH website. https://dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/projects/what-we-teach-when-we-teach-dh
What We Teach When We Teach DH | Debates in the Digital Humanities

Exploring how digital humanities (DH) is taught and what that reveals about the field, this book highlights how DH can transform learning across a vast array of curricular structures, institutions, and education levels, from high schools and small liberal arts colleges to research-intensive institutions and postgraduate professional development programs.

Not all first-gen PhDs are victims of a rigged system. Many of us make conscious career choices that are not status-driven, choices to do our work with students who are at what this piece calls “lower-tier universities.” Students like the students we were. https://www.ft.com/content/0a82182a-be2b-4e6d-989c-a27db7f5c5b5

It’s not the MLA convention you attended 20 years ago. Tons of professional development, research, pedagogy sessions, and advocacy work. And not a single awkward hotel-room interview.
