Revision as of 16:18, 31 January 2009


The bulk of my contributions to Citizendium have been in the social sciences. I mostly focus on articles related to my academic pursuits, which involve Mesoamerica past and present, indigeneity and portrayals of indigeneity in the Americas.

I earned a B.A. from Carleton College in 2007, where I majored in Sociology/Anthropology with a concentration in Latin American Studies. I got my M.A. from the University of Chicago in Latin American and Caribbean Studies in 2008.

Notes to myself to be acted on... eventually.
A CZimerick
We've developed a new wiki project,
and it operates with actual logic.
Our usernames are true,
our vandals are few,
and our solutions are not demagogic.
— By Joe Quick

Me and CZ

Like all good citizens, I've turned my attention to a number of different topics that tend converge as well as some odd ones out. The following is a sample of what I've worked on so far:
These I've put some significant work into These are works in progress And these I hope to get to at some point

...and my new favorite quotes

If meat-space people negotiated contracts in the same way as Wiki users negotiate article wording, someone would write a contract, the other party would change it, and then they'd start philosophizing violently about contracts and forget about the task at hand of agreeing on one. -Warren Schudy

This may simply reflect the fact that wikipedia has pissed off every known form of sentience, three out of four forces of nature, a water-born fungus in Australia and sixty four species of birds. -Christopher J. Reiss
