GIST Course

This is the third set of web projects to emerge from "GIST": a course about Gender, Information, Science and Technology offered at Bryn Mawr College in Spring 2011. Three months into the semester, students are theorizing about the collective practices of groups whose lives or work circumstances shaped, or were impacted by, interesting intra-actions of gender, information, science, and/or technology.
