Internet & Society Conference 2007 - University: Knowledge Beyond Authority May 31, 2007

UNIVERSITY - Knowledge Beyond Authority
an address to authority that speaks from university and says: this is what we want

Harvard University's Internet & Society 2007 Conference (IS2K7) seeks to reify UNIVERSITY as an identity in cyberspace.

We will ask how University should relate to the world of intellectual property with respect to what we use and what we produce, and how interconnected the “library” of University should be. We will consider how the corporate worlds of search and content might thrive by supporting networked universities. We will collaboratively take on the quest for new forms of compatible efficiency to unleash the generative force of universities in the Net.

IS2K7 will gather a diverse group of scholars, students, entrepreneurs, technologists, administrators and policymakers to participate in working groups such as 'University Agenda for Fair Use,' 'University and the RIAA,' and 'Open Access at University - OpenCourseWare and Beyond.'

Registration is $50; $25 for students.

Please join us. Visit the conference site to learn more, to register and to contribute to the conference wikis and conversations!

The conference is hosted by The Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School.
