Blogging Then and Now (250 Years Ago) We think of blogs and tweets as peculiar to the twenty-first century, but similar fragments of information circulated widely in 18th-century Paris and London.  Comparisons of messages exchanged then and now reveal surprising parallels, and they raise questions about the way communication systems operate in different times and cultures.

Again, congratulations to you all. As you get ready to graduate from NCSU, we encourage you to think about buying a commemorative brick.  Each brick can contain up to three lines of text and is placed in the sidewalk in front of Withers.  Use it to commemorate your own graduation or to honor a favorite faculty member or a particularly helpful staff member.  Proceeds will go to support the work of the department. 2011-05-18T19:33:54+00:00 http://history.ncsu.edu/events/view/important_to_add_a_history_class_go_to_the_first_day_of_class http://history.ncsu.edu/events/view/important_to_add_a_history_class_go_to_the_first_day_of_class#When:10:32:48Z Restrictions for seats in all History classes have been removed.
