L to R: Kesia Davies, Ananya Dhandapani, Victoria Dey, and Liam MacLean.
At the end of the year, I like to take students to dinner. We also pay students to work on this project — and that involves time they may need to learn technologies and skills related to the digital humanities and history. But I think hard work and milestones both deserve celebration. Several members of the current project team are graduating and moving on; Victoria Dey joined us this year. There was a lot to fĂȘte. College and graduate school is a journey and I like to remind students that I appreciate them.
So (yet again), we are not a food blog, but this was a very delicious way of celebrating our labor. And no, we did not sit on the cheese.
