Past Events

The Michigan Chapter of CPSR exists primarily as a "virtual chapter"; most of our activity and interaction occurs in cyberspace, through our e-mail list and web conference. We have no regular "physical" meetings scheduled.

However, from time to time, we may get together for meetings of particular interest to members of the group. (If you have an idea for such a meeting, please suggest it!)

Title: One Planet, One Net: The CPSR Campaign on Internet Governance
Abstract: The CPSR board has chosen to focus the organization's efforts, in 1998, on the area of Internet governance. As a first step in that process, we have undertaken the somewhat audacious task of defining a set of general principles that we believe should underlie all future attempts to structure the governance of the Internet. In this talk, I will present these principles and discuss both the reasoning behind them and the tasks that lay ahead of us in this effort.

(Those who wish to read the principles are encouraged to find them at http://www.cpsr.org/program/nii/onenet.html.)

Directions to January 10th Meeting

Coming from out of town, take US 23 to exit 37A, taking Washtenaw Avenue into Ypsilanti. (From Ann Arbor, just take Washtenaw across 23.) Coming east on Washtenaw, go past the water tower and turn left (~25 degrees) onto Emmett. Go 1 block to College and then turn left. Go through light to next stop sign (you will see Pray-Harrold straight ahead, but you can't drive on the sidewalk!). So, turn right, and left at the first service drive, curve around to the left to the parking lot. The Pray-Harrold building is the 7 story building on your right.
