@DrDanielleTW Yes, it is. We've petitioned the Oxford English Dictionary to make FEEGI a synonym for both "prizes" and "opportunities". Still waiting for their response!

[American Historical Association @AHAhistorians]

Is a book still a book if it’s no longer made of paper? As Carla Gardina Pestana explains in #AHAPerspectives, the answer to this question has profound implications for the study and practice of history. https://t.co/DR9nwpyJf6

[FEEGI @FEEGI9]

Carla Pestana, our former president and current FEEGI-ist (because who stops loving FEEGI?!), wrote a great piece on the future of the book for @AHAhistorians Perspectives. Check it out in all its glory in the link below👇! https://t.co/ZvFej47Sn6
