We have reached some of the best months of the academic calendar—summer break. This May to September stretch is full of vacations, family events, and getting back to that book you started reading last fall. It is also chocked full of study abroad courses, conferences, research trips, and completing the final edits on your latest manuscript—all of which your fellow AJHA members want to hear about.

Has your research led to an exciting revelation or brought you new challenges? Do you have fascinating stories from a recent archive trip or tips on navigating research? Maybe you just published a book or have one upcoming that you would like to promote. Or, are you retooling a syllabus for a class this fall or tried a new lesson in the classroom this year that helped students understand media history in a new way (or was not as successful as you hoped)? The Intelligencer wants to publish your research essays, book announcements, and reflections on teaching. Have another idea? Send your pitches, completed essays, or questions to the publication’s editor, Karlin Andersen Tuttle, at kja30@psu.edu.
