I love hearing from students, and I love helping my students succeed. I also love email, which is at least in theory an ownerless, anarchistic, open protocol that doesn't rely on any one company or entity to make it work. But often I find that students come to college in need of a few pointers on what an effective email looks like. text/html 2024-10-01T13:48:07-0500 Anonymous ([email protected]) https://www.lelandquarterly.com/school/digital_culture_and_politics?rev=1727804887&do=diff Digital Culture and Politics MDST 3002 Examines issues at the intersection of digital media, culture and politics, such as regulation and network architecture, piracy and hacking, and grassroots activism.
