It's a pretty incredible feat for a 2nd year doctoral student to already have an article published (sources tell me). Without hesitation ...

You'll have to scroll down a little and be on the lookout for the Virtual Classrooms header, with the article titled "Culture Jams: Critical Media Literacy in the Digital/Multimedia Classroom" by none other than Eric York at Iowa State University. Yea!
If you do end up actually reading the thing, don't expect to understand a bunch of it. I've been hearing about this for over a year now and it's still hard for me to get through. It's academic writing in a discipline I've got only secondhand knowledge about. If you do understand it, great! (And there will likely be a job for you teaching writing somewhere). Also, Eric wrote all the code himself, using HTML. Again, if I tried to explain this I would fall miserably short and demonstrate my incompetence, but it took him a looong time to learn it and get it right.
Also, thoughts on a name change? This is not a challenge for the faint of heart ... google Eric York. There are two separate and mildly famous Eric Yorks out there. One is a wildlife biologist who died of the bubonic plague in 2007. The other is a gay porn star. Of all the luck, right?
Eric J. York?
Eric James York?
E. J. York?
Thoughts?
