Dear AECT Membership, We, the Minorities in Media Affiliate (MIM), would like to create and become a new AECT Division called CULTURE, LEARNING AND TECHNOLOGY. We believe the use of the phrase/title MINORITIES IN MEDIA is outdated and is not inclusive of all members and the work that we do. Our goal is to serve all AECT members who are interested in issues at the intersection of culture, learning and technology. All activities organized under our current MIM structure will be housed under the newly proposed division. We hope that you will support us in this initiative by signing this petition. Sincerely, Roberto Joseph AECT MIM President Associate Professor Hofstra University

Reaching this point has been a long and draining process that forced me to question if anybody else saw the need for this change. Seeing this kind of support proves that we are moving in the right direction despite the exhaustion of the effort. We still have a difficult road ahead but I am not turning back now.

Finally. The old name didnt reflect the actual work we do at all.

Yes! This covers so much more ground and makes sense for where we are heading.

way past time for a rebrand. MIM was definitely dated. CULTURE LEARNING AND TECHNOLOGY is spot on.

The new name sounds a lot more professional and inclusive. Excited to see this change happen!
