I will try to respond to some of your questions about a grad. student in Arts Adminis. interested in a museum career. Sounds as if she's on the right track if she's planning on the area of management in a museum. Altho I don't know the course content of your arts adminis. program. Some are geared more to the performing arts. She needs to talk to as many museum people as possible in different type positions.IF she's not heading for curatorial work, her master's degree should be adequate for the time being. That is, unless shemay need some courses in the discipline of the museum where she may work. That always is a plus! I suggest she contact Adele Silver at the Cleveland Art Museum to start. The doctoral program in art history will be very useful if she wants to be a curator...or maybe a director...depends on the size of the museum. She could join the AAM (American Assoc. of Museums), the Midwest Museums Conf., and the Ohio Museums Assoc. If History is a special interest, she can join the American Assoc. for State and Local History. For her interest in the preservation of historic bldgs., she should contact the National Trust for Historic Preservation. There are graduate programs for that special interest too. Her interests bring up many different thoughts...as will appear in my book, PLANNING MUSEUM CAREERS, to be published early '95. But I will be happy to help as much as I can in the meantime. Good luck!
