...Here at Harvard we’ve been so trained to write correctly, so it’s not as much of an issue as it might be at other schools,” Donovan said in an interview in Adams dining hall. Donovan added that she thinks techno-slang is more likely to be found in verbal communications—a conclusion supported by the report. “I think in terms of colloquialisms, more so than seeping into writing, they are seeping into verbal communications,” she said. English professor Lawrence Buell echoed a similar...

But not in Atlanta, where an unspoken code translates billings such as "techno night" into "white night," while "hip-hop night" means "black night." Some club owners and event promoters have tried with, at best, limited success to buck the status quo. Ski plans to open his own nightclub later this year where he hopes to draw more mixed crowds.
