    I highly recommend DHSI for any DH past or future cohorts apart from the weather and beautiful scenery, it is an eye opening experience for DHers. I am sure you would be inspired to conceptualise and harness 'fantabulous' research topics and interests in the field of DH.
    I will add pictures and links as they become available. So folks stay tuned for more.

    Hello pioneers ,this morning, I came through this excerpt from Carleton University Spring Convocation 2014 website :
    " ◾Students are graduating for the first time from four new disciplines at Carleton. This year's Convocation will see students graduate with master's degrees in Health: Science, Technology and Policy; specializations in Digital Humanities and African Studies; and certificates in American Sign Language."

    The Board of Governors of the University of Victoria decided to launch a post graduate diploma in Digital Humanities. They have also been supportive of the DHSI for years now and the number jumped of participants jumped from 150 to 650 this year. The number of scholarships have also increased significantly. I was one of the lucky ones who received scholarship to attend this year's conference yet you have to find ways to cover your travel and accommodation ( the residence units on campus are centrally located, well maintained and reasonably priced) expenses: GSA travel Bursary, FGPA Travel Bursary and ACH Travel Bursary are just few suggestions. I must say that I used my personal funds this time due to administrative and time constraints.
