#JCDL2018 seems like a good time to announce recent @WebSciDL comings and goings.

Present at @jdl2018 we're happy to have:
* 2 faculty
* 2 incoming faculty (!)
* 6 students
* 3 alumni

@grantcatkins (BS&MS 2018) graduated and is doing a six month internship at @LosAlamosNatLab, working with @hvdsomp & @mart1nkle1n.
We're hopeful his time at LANL will inspire him to get his PhD as well!
@johnaberlin (BS 2015, MS 2018) has joined @rhizome to be a @webrecorder
back end developer. We're also hopeful he'll return for a PhD at some
point, but we're excited we'll be able to collaborate w/ him.

@maheedhargunnam (MS 2018) graduated and his currently interviewing with various companies. If you need an excellent developer, contact him before he's snapped up!

Miranda Smith (BS 2017, MS 2019) @mir_smi is doing a summer internshipat @NASA_Langley, with @DrDanetteAllen in the @AutonomyIncub8r.
Her MS thesis on congressional polarization in Twitter is hold while she works on autonomous vehicles.
@PlinioHVargas (MS 2016) was accepted into the PhD program in 2017,
but has since decided to put that on pause and go to industry.
We hope he will return, but he did leave us with two excellent blog posts.
