Dear Colleagues,

This week, two new papers situate openness of ETDs as an essential
component of effective graduate education in the 21st century. Written
entirely independently, these two works in combination articulate the
power and promise of the ETD experience as an opportunity to empower
the newest generation of scholars to make meaningful and impactful
contributions to their disciplines and to society.

A summary of these articles, with links to each, may be found online
via the Free US Etds blog at http://bit.ly/1bEuyiS

Best regards,

Gail
