1. History of the program?

Has anyone ever created a history of the program itself? I thought you had one posted here, but I don't see it now. I think it would be good to see who started it, when Wendy came and left, when Peter came, etc. The only history that I can find on the official site is a history of the field which really stops in the 1970s--helpful only to a point. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Dennis, I think you just elected yourself! Perhaps you could do something for credit as part of your capstone? It's a neat idea and would prolly be valuable in other contexts as well.

3. RE: History of the program?

Well, there already is a basic history. It just wasn't here or on Futureweb for awhile. Both are back now though. However, I have thought about trying to put together a more formal history--actually interviewing Markley and everyone and doing indepth research on the causes and effects of the program. I just don't have the time right now, but I'll be in Austin for a few months soon. That might be a good time to get started on it. Do you find this valuable?
