In my syllabus I have an Indiana Jones reference in my slides and the article www.nytimes.com/2022/12/13/a... Realizing the Harrison Ford movies are as old as me! Small chance 18-22 year old students will have any idea what I’m referencing

For U.S. Museums With Looted Art, the Indiana Jones Era Is Over (Gift Article)

Prodded by law enforcement, and pushed by foreign governments, American museums are increasingly returning artifacts to countries of origin, but critics wonder at what cost.

The #ACH2026 Mid-Atlantic Regional Hub is happening! This free event runs through Friday at Penn. More info at www.library.upenn.edu/events/ach-2.... Thankful for our wonderful volunteers! @ach.bsky.social

A woman in a pink shirt and a man in a green shirt sit behind an event sign-in table in the entranceway of Van Pelt Library at the University of Pennsylvania. A sign in an easel next to them reads in part: "Welcome! Association for Computing and the Humanities, ACH 2026 Mid-Atlantic Regional Hub at Penn"

Grateful to be able to thank NEH-ODH staff in a public setting during #ACH2025 and recognize their immeasurable contributions to the DH field. I said in my talk that I hate how this feels like a eulogy, but I'm also glad we have the opportunity to share in a moment of community grief.

If you receive a termination notice, see Section 13B of NEH's T&C. A grantee can request NEH review of the termination action; the grant admin must submit the request through eGMS reach no later than 30 calendar days after the date of termination. Read more here: www.neh.gov/general-term...

A few tips for NEH grantees: 1) if you've spent money on an awarded grant but have not yet drawn down the funds, make sure to submit the paperwork to drawn down funds ASAP. 2) the NYTimes article suggests that "DOGE" might cancel awards. If you receive an email from DOGE cancelling your NEH award,

I spent the last five years serving public history, arts, and culture at NEH. Please take a moment to let your representatives know you support NEH. Or read on and I can tell you a little bit about why I believe in public funding for the humanities.

Really appreciate this discussion by Lucy Pei and Roderick Crooks, in the most recent issue of JCMS, on the "deep, studied, careful ambivalence" that community organizers have with respect to data. doi.org/10.1353/cj.2...

A screenshot of a journal article with the following sentences highlighted: "But the organizers we talk to most frequently are not interested in raising awareness: they are interested in raising power, in forms of radical mutual aid and community education, in unlearning the rules of a game that has long been rigged. These organizers assert again and again that data is an important tool, but data alone cannot tell the story they want to tell. "
