      Thrilled to announce our new center to study new technology and society at UNC with the support of @knightfdn as well as @luminategroup & @Hewlett_Found. We will hire an executive director (ASAP) and a tenure-track assistant professor (I'm chairing the search committee) and more!

      The Center for Information, Technology, and Public Life, @citap_unc, will be led by a crossdisciplinary team—me, @kreissdaniel, @alicetiara and @dfreelon, and supported by colleagues across the campus. My dean @marchionini spearheaded the effort! Did I say we're hiring? *grin*

      Much gratitude also to the @UNC leadership. The tenure-track line is a campus contribution to @unc_citap. If you know people who would thrive as the executive director of this new center, send them our way. We'll also hire post-docs and recruit students. We'll have our own space!

          I want to really emphasize a groundbreaking this is. @knightfdn is funding basic research. Across the country. Mainly at public institutions. @luminategroup and @Hewlett_Found joining in. This doesn’t usually happen but this is exactly what should happen to help us move forward.
