PLEASE PARDON THE MESS!

Greetings visitors, especially new readers.
This blog was initially created to record and assist the studies of the 2011 Human Rights class of Southern Methodist University. In case you're interested, it was a resounding success; all students passed, with the highest cumulative average yet recorded!

After classes ended, some efforts have been made to turn the material into a more broadly applicable resource for future classes; however, as the blog is maintained by one individual, the project has fallen by the wayside somewhat.

If you are a current SMU Human Rights student, with access to up-to-date syllabi and course material, and are interested in taking over the project, or even contributing to it, please contact the blogger via a comment below.

Some of the work that needs to be done:
  • Archiving old syllabi info and updating new work.
  • Tagging old posts.
  • Standardizing formats.
  • Contributing new content: notes and audio recordings of new lectures, reviews of assigned media,  news articles.
  • Translating pages. (Especially Spanish and French.)
  • Accessibility: audio recordings of text-only pages.
Also, if you have attended any of the Human Rights study abroad programs and would like to contribute posts about the experience, it would be great to have your input on those as well!
