Election Campaign To Run H-Net, a Popular Network of E-Mail Lists, Turns Nasty.
Guernsey, Lisa
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n32 pA25 Apr 18 1997
Election of a new executive director for H-Net, a humanities and social sciences mailing-list network, is marked by controversy over the large role of Michigan State University in the network, due to the incumbent's faculty status there, and over the extent of his authority. The conflict has extended to how open the network should be to diverse opinions. (MSE)
