Hope everyone is enjoying their Tuesday. A few quick notes:
Culturemachine is featuring Digital Humanities this month:
http://www.culturemachine.net/index.php/cm/issue/current
The Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH) is
seeking a full time Community Lead for at least 12 months to represent
MITH projects using social media (including our blog, Twitter feeds,
and Website), and to communicate the importance of the work to a range
of different constituencies, including scholars, librarians, and
university administrators. The Community Lead will organize and
execute a strategic plan for engagement and outreach, and represent
several of the largest projects in which MITH participates, including
Preserving Virtual Worlds, the Text-Image Linking Environment (TILE),
and especially Project Bamboo. See
http://mith.umd.edu/position-available-mith-community-lead/ for more
information.
On March 15th, Noah Wardrip-Fruin will be joining us for the last
presentation in the 2010-2011 Future Knowledge Speaker Series. Noah
will be presenting on Expressive Fiction. The lecture is at 4 pm in
Lumpkin Auditorium.
Enjoy your Week-

ANN: Blue Waters Petascale Internship Opportunity
Please forward to all potentially interested coleagues:
We would like to make you and your undergraduate students aware of the Blue Waters undergraduate internship program. The NSF Blue Waters project will be funding 17 undergraduate research internships again this year. This program provides for: 1) a $5000 stipend for the student over the course of the year; 2) travel, accommodations, meals and participation in a two-week intensive Petascale Institute at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA); 3) travel to the SC11 conference in Seattle in November.
Because this program is run nationally NCSI is soliciting student applications from across the country, in addition they are seeking faculty with research or educational projects involving high performance computing to post intern positions through our site. Positions can be created for a particular student, or open to qualified applicants.
To learn more about the Blue Waters Undergraduate Petascale Education Program (BW-UPEP), and for information on how you can become involved, please visit our website here. Questions can be sent to jeffk@shodor.org.
