There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Animation Career Review cited the Ivan Allen College’s support for game design education within its Computational Media major and Digital Media graduate degrees:
Known as Games@GT, this “institute-wide initiative” was “designed to advance the game community through interdisciplinary research, funding opportunities, tech transfer and expansion of industry collaborations.” Degree options include a B.S. in Computational Media (BSCM) with a Game Studies Focus, an M.S. degree in Digital Media (formerly Information Design and Technology), an M.S. in Digital Media – HCI, and a Ph.D. in Digital Media. The B.S. in Computational Media (BSCM) with a Game Studies Focus is also supported by the School of Literature Communication and Culture within the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts.
