by Bart Everson<\/p>\n

I don't think I've mentioned it previously, but there's a new book out which has a couple Xavier connections.<\/p>\n

The book is Please Forward: How Blogging Reconnected New Orleans After Katrina<\/a><\/cite> from UNO Press. It collects numerous writings that were shared online in the aftermath of the flooding of New Orleans, and the devastation of the Gulf Coast, from 2005 to 2007.<\/p>\n

One contributor is a Xavier prof, the noted theologian and biblical scholar Michael Homan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Please<\/a><\/p>\n

The other Xavier connection? Well, that would be yours truly.<\/p>\n

We've got a copy of the book here at CAT+FD for your perusal, so stop in and take a look.<\/p>\n

If you're interested in using the book in your teaching, read on...<\/p>\n

We've been contacted by a handful of teachers and professors who have added Please Forward<\/em> to their course syllabi. If you, or someone you know, might be interested in using the book in the classroom, teachers and professors can request a review copy by emailing unopress [at] uno [dot] edu and putting \"Please Forward for Classrooms\" in the subject line.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
