This website was a collaborative effort created for a developing Consortium for professors and graduate students studying and teaching at at universities in the Pittsburgh area primarily in the disciplines of rhetoric, linguistics, anthropology, and communication studies. The website's primary purpose was to facilitate social interaction between members to create an intellectual community. We conducted user-based research including interviews, card sorts, and user testing with potential members, created wireframes, a final report, and a presentation for the client.
