Even in spite of SwatNet, Swatties have still been making their mark online. With swassip, Swattie Bodies, and Swatmemes popping up — just to name a few — we wanted to find out who else has gone viral. In this special issue on SwatNet Sensations, we collected stories from across campus, from Tumblr’ed ice cream to 24-hour journalism, to find out how students and faculty are stretching bandwidth and short-circuiting outlets all over the place.Video
