Museum Studies students set up the current exhibition from the Holocaust Museum in the J.D. Williams Library at the University of Mississippi.
DECEMBER 2, 2021
Museum Studies students learned practical experience this week, helping to install an exhibition on the first floor of the J.D. Williams Library at the University of Mississippi.
Americans and the Holocaust, a traveling exhibition from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., examines the motives, pressures, and fears that shaped Americans’ responses to Nazism, war, and genocide in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s.
Four students, Victoria Allen, Reese Anderson, Madeline Duvall, and Kristen Randle, currently enrolled in Muse 201- Introduction to Museum Practice, were able to apply what they learned in class by assisting Professor Kariann Fuqua and a team from the Library to unpack and put together the large panels and kiosks.
The exhibition is on display through January 14, 2022.
