Dear Erin: I know you initially wrote to reply to Krista, but when I saw you were from GW I wanted to get in touch! I am a Museum Studies graduate student at Baylor University, and the other week one of our professors mentioned something about GW doing a Museum Law course on-line. Have you heard anything about this? I would really be interested in taking that as a CE course. I look forward to you reply!
