I wanted a cool and appropriate name for our blog, so I conducted a survey of Franklin Pierce colleagues and a few friends outside the school who work with academic technology. “Schoogle” was the clear winner, with “Academic Survival Center” a close runner up. I’m glad that Schoogle won, because it’s a unique identifier and will be quick to say. “Did you see today’s Schoogle post?” “Yeah, there’s a link to that on Schoogle.” “Oh my god, did you see that idiotic diatribe about flying monkeys on Schoogle? Who does Tracy think she is?!!”

Welcome to Schoogle, the weblog of the Academic Services Center at Franklin Pierce University. We’ll post announcements, study tips, letters to students, and podcasts on this site, but Schoogle won’t be a one-way street. The comments and feedback of readers, especially Franklin Pierce students, will be vital to moving this blog beyond flat text and into a real conversation.
