Letter to Division 3 Chairs

Dear Professors,

A Hampshire student's Division III project is the crowning achievement of his or her college experience. Unfortunately, after months of hard work, most Division III projects are left on the shelves and never looked at again. Hampedia is a wiki platform that allows Hampshire students, staff, faculty and alumni to collectively create, edit, and document all of the content that constitutes Hampshire College. One of Hampedia's main objectives is to create a comprehensive, all-inclusive database comprising the history of our college. With a program as unique as Hampshire's, the impact our students and alumni make on the college must be acknowledged and honored. Therefore, we would like to begin uploading Division III projects onto Hampedia to be preserved and available for all to see.

Naturally, assisting every student in posting their Division III project is a huge undertaking and while we want to post all of the projects out there, priorities must be made in the interest of time. Could you please give us the names of a few students whose projects you find particularly exciting, interesting or beneficial to the community as a whole?

As an added favor to the Hampedia development group, please encourage your students to talk to us and post their final papers, projects, etc. online! We are eager to work with everyone to make their vital and fascinating accomplishments available. In the coming weeks, we will be adding tutorials for uploading these projects.

If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact Madeleine Hahn at mch08@hampshire.edu.

Sincerely, The Digitising Hampshire Team Jose Fuentes and Ananda Valenzuela, Facilitators
