Welcome 2015-16 Seniors!  A link to the Boas' article can be found here

  1. How like or unlike was your exhibit plan to Boas’ vision of how a museum on culture would be organized?  What were the limitations of this activity?
  2. How were folks like Tylor, Morgan and Grant products of their time?
  3. Can an exhibition be political?  If so, how, if not, why not?
  4. Boas thought that people would see the humanity in others, “if only people learned to look”?  How did Boas want them to see others?
  5. How was “science” used to justify policy - or vice versa?
