UM profs join the blogosphere
Some faculty members at the University of Maryland School of Law can add a new title to their resume – blogger.
The school has launched Quoth the Raven, a faculty blog. (Sayeth I: if it has “quoth” in the title, it’s gotta be good.) The blog is a chance for professors to share thoughts “about current events and other concerns – including reactions to judicial and other decisions that affect law teaching and scholarship, ideas about legal education, commentary on political affairs and views about social justice,” Dean Phoebe Haddon wrote in the inaugural post.
The blog has featured several updates each day with headlines that grab your attention. My favorite so far: “Post-Racial ‘Race Talk’ and the Marketing of Tampons.” Incidentally, the blogger, Taunya Lovell Banks, also wrote a very interesting piece on noted seersucker aficionado Atticus Finch and the 50th anniversary of “To Kill a Mockingbird.”
So welcome to the blog neighborhood, Quoth the Raven, and here’s hoping the posts are evermore.
