A Call for a Student Advisor

Sep 10th, 2007 1 Comment

Last winter I had the opportunity to advise Eric Grossnickle, a graduate student in New Media at the Academy of Art.

Eric’s thesis project is the design and implementation of a media-rich ‘it just works’ environment to non-technical people who want to connect across the web. He’s in need of a second advisor in addition to myself for the coming Fall term. Ideally the advisor will have a technical and/or design experience in developing web 2.0 applications, and some experience in the business side as well. The commitment is to meet once a week (for 1 hour) and the advisor would be compensated by the University. Anyone interested in finding out more can get in touch with Eric at http://eric.grossnickle.org/contact/

I’ll let Eric field any follow-up questions on just what that means, but I must add that I find working with him enjoyable and that his work shows some real promise, not only as a test of his design and technical skills, but also as a web-based business.

  1. Does the advisor need to be in a specific place geographically?
