VassarWiki:About: Difference between revisions

Put simply, a wiki (from the Hawaiian word for "quick"<ref>https://www.britannica.com/topic/wiki</ref>) is a collaboratively edited website.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki</ref> While many wikis are encyclopedias, they don't have to be. VassarWiki was created to be an encyclopedia and more. It's a space for the Vassar community to collectively share and organize information—building a persistent institutional memory and bridging otherwise isolated corners of our campus.
