Weeknotes: 2/25/24-3/2/24

This Week:

• In Collections Management, I took the students through the processes of accessioning an object into the Museum’s collection, and through the NAGPRA process. The latter is something I had never taught systematically before, and though I think it turned out alright, I am going to tweak it a bit when I teach it next time around.
• I finished reading Terry Bisson’s wonderful “Fire on the Mountain”, an alternate history where John Brown’s raid successfully kicked off a rebellion, and the Southern US becomes a multi-racial socialist democracy. The book is well written and hopeful, and I really enjoyed it.
• My wife and I finally finished watching Reservation Dogs, which is as good of a television show as has been made in the 21st century.
