Scholar Crush

*in best flight attendant voice*

To your right is a section titled: Links: clicky click. In this section, there are links. Now, the links will include YouTube videos and what have you. But, there will also be links to what I am calling, my scholar crush.

Scholar crush? Nothing weird going on here, just a bit nerdy/geeky. These are scholars who I find absolutely intelligent, unique and just plan ole nifty in their scholarship (aka they rawk! \m/ ).

So check out Constance, who was mentored by James Paul Gee. And /bow down before N. Katherine Hayles! More will be added throughout the semester.

Thank you for reading Le Noob in Academia. Now clicky click.

  1. I have one question, Amanda - what do you think of the first part of Diablo? I used to play this game over and over and over again and you made me think of it again! (I must resist!)

  2. You must give in to the dark side...we have cookies! You mean this beginning:

    It's intriguing and draws you in. You go under a church and darkness awaits. Why is darkness under a church? And, holy moly, is that...Diablo! I love game intro movies for the most part. They set the stories up, and they aren't intriguing, it's kinda sad.

    Oh, and Silver, you know you want to. Go ahead, load it on your laptop, if it isn't there already. Give in to the siren call....mwuhahahahaha.
