Back in October the Blake Archive offices at UNC were honored with a visit from Alan Liu, Professor of English at the University of California at Santa Barbara and a luminary in the field of digital humanities and media studies. Dr. Liu spent some time with the Archive staff learning about our history and our editorial practices. We also discussed the future of digital humanities, particularly its potential to transform graduate education and faculty careers. We offer here some (belated!) photos from Dr. Liu’s visit.
