EPEC Course Description
Are you interested in documenting Hampshire? Digitizing Hampshire is an EPEC course dedicated to creatively collecting information about Hampshire's history, community, buildings, departments, and more. Our method of recording information will be Hampedia, which opens up a multitude of possibilities for content creation. We intend to, among other things, work with Division III students to put up their work awesome projects on Hampedia, create pages for each Hampshire building and explore its history, those who work/reside/study there, its offices/departments, and more, do video interviews of professors/administrators who have been at Hampshire for 20 or more years to learn more about Hampshire's founding and fascinating history, reach out to the Hampshire community and teach them how to use Hampedia to their advantage, write code to better the wiki platform upon which it is built, and more!

This course will allow for individual students to concentrate upon their personal areas of interest, so if you are only interested in doing one of the aforementioned things, that is great! We encourage all members of the Hampshire community to join this EPEC course if they are interested in devoting time to digitising Hampshire and documenting its fascinating past and present. This course can be recorded as an official independent study on your transcripts.
