There is no one style of citation that is appropriate for every case. Rather than stipulate a particular citation style for all times and places, I encourage students to learn to determine for themselves what standards they should use in a given context. By the end of one's education, one should be familiar with a variety of citation techniques. text/html 2026-01-09T20:17:27+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/media_activism?rev=1767989847&do=diff Media Activism and Public Engagement MDST 5002 Depending on whom you ask, media-powered activism can sound like either a silver bullet or a lost cause. It's often both at the same time and more in between. Through examining the strategies and tactics of movements, past and present, we'll discover how media can shape social change and how we can become more savvy media practitioners ourselves. text/html 2018-05-03T18:50:16+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/hacker_culture_s2018?rev=1525373416&do=diff Hacker Culture MDST 2012 it seems to me sometimes I've entered some inverted zone, some mirror world where the dorkiest shit in the world is completely dominant.

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 2017-01-12T18:23:40+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/religion_in_american_life?rev=1484245420&do=diff Religion in American Life: Discovering the Past, Encountering the Present What this class is about Religion is omnipresent, so to speak, and it influences our society in immense ways.
