• 2010 Summer Courses have been posted, for both Academy and Center. Credit goes to Jordan for the heads-up!

• An original song has been put forward to stand as the semi-official TIP Anthem. It is both catchy and rocking, prerequisites for any such musical endeavor.

• Thanks to the efforts of Cally! and others, the TipWiki has been funded for over the next three years. Thanks!

• If you will be heading back to TIP this year, please spread the word about the TIPwiki and encourage your friends to come by and contribute. I would love to hear from all of you with your ideas for the future of the wiki and any comments/suggestions. If any of you are interested in getting more actively involved in the wiki, I would love to hear that too! Please feel free to email anthony@chivetta.org. --Anthony 03:50, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

A fort in the process of being built

The current Collaboration is Llama.

The Collaboration is an article on TIPWiki which is chosen to be community 'target' for editing. The end goal is to produce a spotlight-worthy article for TIPsters. Collaboration articles are chosen for having high potential as an article, but poor execution. Note that editors are free to work with others on any article they wish, the collaboration is simply a suggested article. If you have suggestions for a collaboration, tell Ty on his talk page.

Easy ways to contribute to a collaboration:

• Add a photo
• Fix spelling and grammatical errors
• Improve the article's section breaks
• Categorize the page
  

The previous Collaboration was Card games.

Hosting: This page is now hosted by Anthony Chivetta on NearlyFreeSpeech.net. It does cost a few cents every month to host so, we can not afford to put too many large images on the site.

Logo: Design our logo! We are currently in need of a logo. To submit a design, upload it to the site and add it to the logos page or Email Anthony. It must be in PNG format, 125x125(+/-10), and should have a transparent background (!=white). It can not use the official Duke TIP logo for legal reasons. See possible logos.

Editing Help: Can be found here.
