The CIS Department is working to make this blog a useful communication tool for all students in our department, as well as a CIS community forum for students, faculty, and alumni. We are looking for a few more student writers to participate in writing for the blog.
Opportunities can include simple editing work to publicize upcoming opportunities and events, but we are also looking for students who would like to write original articles on IT-related topics and current events of interest to them, at the rate of approximately 1-2 articles per month. We would like to make this blog a place where students in the department can look for new information related to the field, and perhaps even discuss some of the articles and concepts together as a community.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact Dr. Jamie Pinchot at your earliest convenience (pinchot@rmu.edu). Blog writers are eligible to earn SET credit for this work.
