SHAKSPER 1992: Humanities Postgraduate Issues
From: Hardy M. Cook (hmcook@boe00.minc.umd.edu) Date: 10/28/92
Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 3, No. 275. Wednesday, 28 October 1992.
From: Stuart Lee <STUART@VAX.OXFORD.AC.UK>
Date: Wednesday, Oct. 28, 1992, 10:59 GMT
Subject: Humanities Postgraduates/ A forum for discussion
Dear All,
I have noticed recently that there have been several questions
appearing on lists concerning Postgraduate issues. It occurred to me then that
now might be a fortuitous time to repost the message concerning HumGrad, the
discussion list for all PostGraduate students in Humanities subjects. The list
is managed by myself and Gavin Burnage (GBURNAGE@UK.AC.OX.VAX) from the British
National Corpus. Please feel free to cross-post and distribute this information
accordingly,
Stuart Lee

HUMGRAD is a UK-based electronic mailing list for postgraduates
working in the humanities. It's a forum for the exchange of ideas,
information and comment on any humanities subject and the work and
problems of postgraduates. Subscribing to it will put you in touch
with people across the UK and beyond who have interests and
difficulties similar to your own. A big advantage of a list for
postgraduates is that it provides the opportunity to ask questions
away from the minefield of the academic high ground. As well as being
a place for general humanities discussion, HUMGRAD might be able to
help you discover the potential of computers in humanities research,
even if your computing skills and interests are currently minimal.
To join the list, send this command in a mail message:
JOIN HUMGRAD Your Name
to one of the following addresses as appropriate:
MAILBASE@MAILBASE.AC.UK (everywhere outside the UK)
MAILBASE@UK.AC.MAILBASE (within the UK)
MAILBASE is more or less equivalent to the LISTSERVs to be found on
EARN and BITNET -- but don't expect the commands to be exactly the
same! When you subscribe, a Mailbase User's Guide is sent to you
automatically (unless you're a mailbase user already). To find out
more about the use of mailbase before subscribing, email the command
HELP or SEND MAILBASE USERHELP to one of the mailbase addresses above.
If you want to deal with a mailbase human rather than the mailbase
computer, send a message to MAILBASE-REQUEST@MAILBASE.AC.UK (outside
the UK) or MAILBASE-REQUEST@UK.AC.MAILBASE (within the UK). The
HUMGRAD list owners, Stuart Lee and Gavin Burnage, will be be able to
help with queries related specifically to the list.
