Two cohorts of students have experienced Colloquy at the MFA Interaction Design program and have <a href=\"http:\/\/colloquyofmobiles.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">produced a website<\/a> about their experiences (though more effort will be required to\u00a0document the project as a whole).
