Our project was initiated at Rice University, but we have all long since left Rice. We now work at Adelphi, Brown, Cal Poly, Northeastern, Northwestern, Utah and WPI, and often collaborate with friends at other universities. Over the years the Project has been partially sponsored by several organizations including:

• the US National Science Foundation
• the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) at the US Department of Education
• the Exxon Foundation
• CORD, partners of the Academy of Information Technology
• Microsoft
• Google

We thank these sponsors for their generous support. We also appreciate the support of our host academic institutions.
