Draper Blog: in.ter.reg.num

We at Draper are excited to announce the launching of our new blog, in.ter.reg.num. Taking the place of our traditional semiannual newsletters, in.ter.reg.num will be a dynamic source of information about the Draper community, including student and alumni news and announcements, faculty news, and events and resources of interest. Check it out at http://draperprogram.blogspot.com/

We'll be updating the blog each week on Thursday, so keep checking back!
