Hello! My name is Caity Swanson, and I’m a Ph.D. candidate also in the English Department at Stony Brook. My dissertation focuses on borders, security, and the War on Terror in contemporary US literature. I’m new to Humanities Commons, so I’m excited to learn more about the platform. I’m hoping that through this summer camp I’ll get a better sense of what’s possible on HC and how to get the most out of it. I’m also hoping that the activities and using HC will help me develop (or at least think about how to develop) a more cohesive digital presence for my academic self. My number one goal is to complete all the challenges, but as I’m totally new to the platform, I don’t know what that entails or which ones I’ll need courage to accomplish – maybe all of them.
In the spirit of summer camp, here’s a popsicle stick joke:
How does a computer catch fish?
With its internet.
