For those of us who have blogs and personal webpages.. it might be a nice gesture to change our background and banner colors to chicago maroon (810541) and burnt orange (CC5500) for Friday and the weekend. Many people have been leveraging the social power of Web the last two days.. and this would be one more (albeit small) way to encourage some reflection on this tragedy.

i'm forwarding this to you because there was discussion and interest on this list, but it is somewhat off topic, though... is certainly an internet and educational phenomena. --- Hokie Hope - Orange and Maroon Effect Friday April 20th I know this email is quickly circulating around through the Hokie community, so I apologize if some of you have already received this, but I wanted to pass it on to both my VT and non-VT friends...please participate if you wish and pass along to others as well. *Virginia Tech family members across the country and around the world have united to declare this Friday, April 20th, an "Orange and Maroon Effect" day to honor those killed in the tragic events on campus Monday, and to show support for Virginia Tech students, faculty, administrators, staff, alumni, and friends. "Orange and Maroon Effect" was born several years ago as an invitation to Tech fans to wear orange and maroon to Virginia Tech athletic events. We invite everyone from all over the country to be a part of the Virginia Tech family this Friday, to wear orange and maroon to support the families of those who were lost, and to support the school and community we all love so much.* jeremy hunsinger Information Ethics Fellow, Center for Information Policy Research, School of Information Studies, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (www.cipr.uwm.edu) wiki.tmttlt.com www.tmttlt.com () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments http://www.stswiki.org/ sts wiki http://cfp.learning-inquiry.info/ Learning Inquiry-the journal http://transdisciplinarystudies.tmttlt.com/ Transdisciplinary Studies:the book series _______________________________________________ The air-l@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org Join the Association of Internet Researchers: http://www.aoir.org/
