      NYTimes has a story out today about the lack of students in humanities programs, even at top schools. Though the discussion of the dwindling importance/influence of humanities is not new, it is an interesting discussion. Also, a timely article for those of us in Pratt’s DH class…

      http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/31/education/as-interest-fades-in-the-humanities-colleges-worry.html

      The piece also mentions a couple of DH initiatives at Stanford that hope to reinvigorate humanities interest for students.

      All best, sean
