Anyone noticed there’s a whole lot of blogging going on these days at Sweet Briar? Well, the Chronicle of Higher Education’s Jeff Young noticed one titled “Google Wave in the classroom.”

“I’m keeping my fingers crossed about getting a chance to try out google wave as a course management software,” wrote government professor Steve Bragaw in his brief post.

Young posted his own story on the Chronicle’s Wired Campus blog quoting Bragaw and linking to his SBC post. From there it caught the attention of several other bloggers with the headline “Could Google Wave Replace Course-Management Systems?” Comments ensued.

So did Bragaw’s wishful thinking about Google Wave set off a brouhaha? Maybe just a small one.
