What do HASTAC Scholars actually do?
- Participate in our annual University Worth Fighting For series—online or in person
- Blog about your own work and research projects, questions, ideas
- Report on activities at your local institution and department
- Share insights from conferences and performances
- Network both online and at local meet-ups or conferences
- Conduct interviews, book reviews, project reviews—your status as a HASTAC Scholar can give you a sense of standing to reach out to major people in your field!
- Are you interested in a new tool or pedagogical idea? You could host a small video chat with other Scholars to work through how you can implement it!
- Other ideas: Create an app, co-ordinate the development of a small DH project, work with your university library on a digitization project, etc.
- In short: Every student ends up being active in a different way. We are open to how you want to help build this community or develop a supportive community on your campus!
