Changes

<li>This prototype has two parts. First, expanding Dr. Pinckney Benedict's Creative Writting Podcast Lab into a full Digital Humanities Studio. This will allow more diverse teams to work in mediums relatively new to the humanities. By increasing the quality and mobility of the lab, we open the door for new possibilities and set the studio up for further expansion into the realms of videograpy and external realities. </li><li>Second, the Saluki Tales Podcasting internship will be offered in the fall spring to History and other humanties students. Under direction of Dr. Joseph Sramek and history department chair Dr. Jon Bean, we will create a team of students who will produce and distribute a podcast which celebrates the research of students. This opportunity will give students the chance to share their research through a new medium, learn skills applicable both inside and outside the field, and finally set SIU's history program apart from all other history programs in the nation. Our research suggests SIU will be one of two universities in the united states using collaboration between faculty and students for historical podcasting, and possibly the only one which celebrates their original research.</li>
