Internship: Neville Public Museum

This blog will act as my means to record my experiences at the Neville Public Museum. I will be working as an Intern there from January until May of 2008 to satisfy my requirments through the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay as well as my own academic development as this will allow me to work outside of the classroom. I will post a brief summary of my activities after each day of work and use this to reflect on my experiences.

I am finishing my fourth year at the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay. I will be graduating this Spring with a B.A. in History. I plan on attending Graduate School shortly thereafter. I am currently working on a research project which examines the evolution of America's "beer culture" over the last 30 years.

Day 19

Today I started an artifact research project. It was a nice change of pace from what Ive been doing. Trevor assigned me an old M. Hohner Accordion which little was known about and had me answer some questions about it. I also filled out a condition report stating the condition that the artifact was in. The whole thing was boring and monotonous and I LOVED IT. I am one of those people where the more boring something is, the better I like it. It was nice to search the world for information about this object, even if its only an accordion.
