Dear All,
	I have noticed recently that there have been several questions
appearing on lists concerning Postgraduate issues. It occurred to me then that
now might be a fortuitous time to repost the message concerning HumGrad, the
discussion list for all PostGraduate students in Humanities subjects. The list
is managed by myself and Gavin Burnage (GBURNAGE@UK.AC.OX.VAX) from the British
National Corpus. Please feel free to cross-post and distribute this information
accordingly,

Stuart Lee

  HUMGRAD is a UK-based electronic mailing list for postgraduates
  working in the humanities. It's a forum for the exchange of ideas,
  information and comment on any humanities subject and the work and
  problems of postgraduates. Subscribing to it will put you in touch
  with people across the UK and beyond who have interests and
  difficulties similar to your own. A big advantage of a list for
  postgraduates is that it provides the opportunity to ask questions
  away from the minefield of the academic high ground.  As well as being
  a place for general humanities discussion, HUMGRAD might be able to
  help you discover the potential of computers in humanities research,
  even if your computing skills and interests are currently minimal.


  To join the list, send this command in a mail message:

                    JOIN HUMGRAD  Your Name

  to one of the following addresses as appropriate:

              MAILBASE@MAILBASE.AC.UK   (everywhere outside the UK)
              MAILBASE@UK.AC.MAILBASE   (within the UK)


  MAILBASE is more or less equivalent to the LISTSERVs to be found on
  EARN and BITNET -- but don't expect the commands to be exactly the
  same! When you subscribe, a Mailbase User's Guide is sent to you
  automatically (unless you're a mailbase user already). To find out
  more about the use of mailbase before subscribing, email the command
  HELP or SEND MAILBASE USERHELP to one of the mailbase addresses above.

  If you want to deal with a mailbase human rather than the mailbase
  computer, send a message to MAILBASE-REQUEST@MAILBASE.AC.UK (outside
  the UK) or MAILBASE-REQUEST@UK.AC.MAILBASE (within the UK). The
  HUMGRAD list owners, Stuart Lee and Gavin Burnage, will be be able to
  help with queries related specifically to the list.
