Call for bloggers: Join the MARCH Team!

mid-atlantic-mapThe Mid-Atlantic Regional Center for the Humanities at Rutgers-Camden (MARCH) seeks bloggers on issues and trends in public humanities.  Since the inception of the MARCH website, bloggers have written on such diverse topics as living history, copyright law, project management, and the viability of digitization and digital history projects.
