This colloquium is a great opportunity for graduate students. BHC makes a
deliberate attempt to reach out to people who might not consider themselves
"historians of business" but whose work interacts in some way with markets,
consumption, corporations, etc. Indeed, the BHC's commitment to graduate
students inspired some of our SIGCIS practices such as the dissertations in
progress session at our workshop.
