Subject: Talking to students about what we do


Hello, all--

This semester I am teaching a class on "Curating, Collecting and  
Connoisseurship."  One of the assignments is an interview with a  
museum professional, in which the students devise a list of questions,  
conduct a phone interview with someone working in the field, and then  
summarize the major points of the conversation in a class presentation.

Is anyone out there willing to be interviewed by a college student  
hoping to learn more about what it's really like to work in a museum?

Thank you in advance for your willingness to help--some of you may  
remember that I posted a similar query a couple of years ago.  As  
always, list members generously responded, and it was a great class  
exercise.

All best,
--
