My name is Krista Barnum and I am a graduate student at Baylor University in the Museum Studies Department. Currently, I am gathering research and data for my master’s thesis. My research is focused on studying the relationship between museums, anthropologists,
and the public since the passage of NAGPRA in 1990 and the changing public discourse on cultural sensitivity and diversity.
To aid in my research, I have composed a survey to identify museums around the United States that fit my research criteria. The survey contains questions regarding your professional experience, academic background, museum affiliation, and your museum’s
collection, audience, and staff background.
Your participation in this survey would be a great help to my research. I hope you will consider. The survey can be accessed at the link below.
Thank you,
