By participating in New Media Initiative activities or signing up for ACTLab courses you are becoming a member of an ongoing community with members on campus, at other universities, and in the professional world. Many ACTlabbies have gone on to their own startups or to major corporations in a wide variety of fields, and still participate in ACTLab life. During the semester, alumni from around the globe (the "Old Borgs' Network" ) visit and share their practical knowledge, startling insights, and true-life dramas from the Other Side. We are constantly refreshing the ACTLab community network through our mailing lists, personal visits by alumni and special guests, and classes' forays into exciting professional and aesthetic environments.
