The Dartmouth Museum (Nova Scotia)some years back did an exhibit entitled
"Dartmouth's Memorable Women" where a call was put out to the community for
nominations. I believe schools were able to include the project in their
curriculum as a research/history activity. The top 100 responses were
chosen and profiled in the exhibit. As the community at large selected the
women, there were no hard feelings towards the museum.

>We are concerned about who to include in these exhibits--do we include

>what, if any, criteria was set to determine inclusion in the exhibit?
>Also, who is included in the exhibit--actors, athletes, artists, authors,
