New Faculty joining our Department
We are thrilled to announce that Associated Professor Jacqueline Wernimont is now part of the Film and Media Department. Prof. Wernimont is also the Distinguished Chair of Digital Humanities and Social Engagement.
She is a co-Director of HASTAC (Humanities, Arts, Science, and Technology Alliance and Collaborative) and runs the Digital Justice Lab at Dartmouth. Her books include Numbered Lives: Life and Death in Quantum Media and the co-edited Bodies of Information: Intersectional Feminism and Digital Humanities (with Elizabeth Losh). As a digital media scholar who specializes in mathematic and computational media and their histories, her work is synthetic and bridges the humanities, sciences, and arts.
Prof. Wernimont will be teaching two courses this winter term.
This year we also have talented visiting lecturers!
