Indexical Tweets, “Dilbert Meets Critical Theory…” Edition

Dilbert Academia

Highlights, lowlights, links, and some Peirce, a little Habermas, and bit of Communication theory from the Icon Index Symbol Twitter stream:

Semiotica has symposium on Peircean diagrams and logic, including key article on proofs of pragmatism http://is.gd/xIIfsI

Syllabus for full-semester course on Peirce, courtesy of Michael Shapiro http://is.gd/qnnEBG

Communication Studies has symposium this quarter on how all of Obama’s opponents are racist. Nice to see academics avoiding self-caricature.
