I am Assistant Professor of English at New York City College of Technology and the CUNY Graduate Center, where I also serve as Assistant to the Provost for Master’s Programs and Digital Initiatives. I’ve began using WordPress in 2004; since then, I’ve gone on to direct several WordPress/BuddyPress academic projects, including the CUNY Academic Commons and Looking for Whitman. I’m especially proud that these projects contribute back to the WordPress community; the plugins developed by the CUNY Academic Commons team have been downloaded over 100,000 times.
Matthew will be participating in the Academic Panel – Socializing Higher Education through Content Management Systems.
