Scope and Content Note

From the Series:

The series contains Master's theses from 1943 to present. The theses consist of either a production book and a media component or solely a production book.

The physical production books are stored offsite and the digital production books are stored in the College's preservation repository.

The media components consist of U-matic tapes, VHS tapes, CDs, DVDs, and Blu-rays and changed to digital submissions in 2020. There are also a handful of audiocassette tapes and one USB. The media components are stored onsite at the Archives.

Overview

"The personal data that we generate on the Internet is one of the most valuable resources available to businesses and governments. Due to a variety of political, economic and social factors, however, a common language and understanding surrounding key aspects of personal data – ownership, value and privacy, specifically – has failed to emerge. This state of affairs undermines and distorts arguments for extending the financial and societal benefits of “big data” toward models that serve the public good. #MyDataMyDollar$ presents an overview of the factors that contribute to this problem, surveys some of the solutions currently under development and suggests a path forward for rethinking how we can claim and direct the value of these data to better attend to the interests of the general public." -- Abstract
