In early 2008, Sousanis moved from Detroit to New York City to pursue a Doctorate of Education in Interdisciplinary Studies at Columbia University's Teachers College.[20] At that point TheDetroiter.com was sold to the YMCA.[18] In 2011, Sousanis organized the 2011 Game Show NYC.[21] Talks were given by Maxine Greene, Tony Wagner, Fred Goodman, and Donald Brinkman at the concurrent conference for Creativity, Play, and Imagination Across Disciplines.[22] Sousanis defended his dissertation, titled "Unflattening: A Visual-Verbal Inquiry into Learning in Many Dimension," at Teachers College, Columbia University in May 2014.[23] His dissertation was published by Harvard University Press in April 2015 as Unflattening;[24] the New York Times called it: {{blockquote|a genuine oddity, a philosophical treatise in comics form. 'Flatness,' for Sousanis's purposes, is not the quality of abstraction that Clement Greenberg lauded in modern art, but the lamentable condition of the inhabitants of Edwin A. Abbott's 'Flatland': the inability to understand that there might be more than one can immediately perceive. The solution he proposes is admitting visual elements, and especially drawings, into the intellectual domain of language. (Psst — he's talking about comics!)"[25]}}Unflattening won the 2015 Lynd Ward Graphic Novel Prize, taking top honor as book of the year.[26]In 2015, Sousanis accepted a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Calgary, where he teaches about comics.[27] In Fall 2016, he will join the School of Humanities and Liberal Studies at San Francisco State University as an Assistant Professor.[28] In 2018, Sousanis won the Eisner Award for best short story for writing "A Life in Comics: The Graphic Adventures of Karen Green".[29] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Unflattening: A Dissertation in Comics Form Reimagines Scholarship|url=http://www.cdh.ucla.edu/news-events/unflattening-a-dissertation-in-comics-form-reimagines-scholarship/| publisher = UCLA Digital Humanities|accessdate=28 March 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Unflattening: How a Dissertation in Comics Form Reimagined Scholarship and Academic Writing|url=https://english.princeton.edu/events/unflattening-how-dissertation-comics-form-reimagined-scholarship-and-academic-writing| publisher = Department of English, Princeton University|accessdate=28 March 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web | last = booksadventures | title = Unflattening: Thinking Through Comics, Nick Sousanis at Microsoft Research | publisher = MIT Center for Civic Media | date = 28 June 2013 | url = https://civic.mit.edu/blog/natematias/unflattening-thinking-through-comics-nick-sousanis-at-microsoft-research | accessdate = 29 March 2015 }} 4. ^{{cite web | last = Culbertson | first = Hilary | title = Teaching with Comics: Nick Sousanis' Comics Classroom | publisher = HASTAC | date = 16 January 2014 | url = http://www.hastac.org/blogs/hilary-culbertson/2014/01/16/teaching-comics-nick-sousanis-comics-classroom | accessdate = 29 March 2015 }} 5. ^{{cite web | last = Matias | first = J.
