People sleep on CUNY but it is one of the absolute JEWELS of U.S. Higher Ed and has been for decades. And what's the thanks the system gets??? It has to fight for its life every single year because it has been systematically defunded.

The Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy

• How do making epistemologies shape our use of an approach to digital tools and techniques?
• How have we come to understand the form, constitution, genealogies, and politics of digital tools and techniques through making practices?
• What new vocabularies of partnership, praxes, of anti-oppression, and approaches to making labor visible emerge through making practices?
