Historical Fellows and other GCDI roles

The GCDI People page supplies dated alumni role histories. These records add institutional context to the archive; membership does not establish who wrote a post.

Academic-calendar interpretation, confirmed by Ian G. Williams: a range such as 2012–2015 covers 2012–2013, 2013–2014 and 2014–2015. These are role intervals, rather than exact appointment dates or complete semester rosters. A fall-only entry stays fall-only. Summer matches are not inferred.

Recorded role histories across academic years

The roster below opens on 2026–2027 with every recorded role. Select a cell to inspect a role and its source statements. Counts describe distinct reviewed name/role entries in this directory. People can appear in multiple programs; column totals are not exclusive human headcounts. A zero means no dated claim in this source, rather than confirmed absence.

The 2026–2027 row incorporates the roster from the People page observed November 2, 2026, using Ian G. Williams’s confirmed academic-year assignment. A dash marks missing annual evidence for a role.

The archive also includes guest-authored posts by students who were not Fellows at publication, including participants in the Graduate Center Digital Research Institute (GCDRI). Ian supplied this contextual clarification. Guest authorship is an authorship relationship; participation and fellowship appointments are separate roles. Assess fellowship status at the post date, rather than treating it as a lifetime identity. A missing directory match alone establishes neither guest status nor nonmembership. Participant reflections remain in the full archive and its applicable analytical populations; a Fellow-only filter intentionally selects a narrower population.

What changes in the archive analyses?

The topic and word views can compare the original signed lists, reviewed name resolutions, dated Digital Fellow intervals, any dated GCDI role, and the union of resolved signed teams with dated Digital Fellow intervals. A match concerns a recorded writer credit; account-only authorship remains unresolved. The source-supported authorship filter is a separate restriction.

The original signed-list CSV and its saved topic means are preserved. New summaries re-average the same fitted post weights; no NLTK cleaning or MALLET fitting was rerun. Neither an appointment interval nor a lack of a directory match settles article authorship.

Signed-name resolutions and remaining ambiguities · Every role claim, including undated entries · Post-credit matches by evidence basis · Saved topic averages for each basis

Methodology and limitations · Reviewed name crosswalk and sources · Preserved source text · Validation and counts · CRediT/GAIDeT contribution disclosure.
