The Sun Chronicle on April 17, 2013 ran a story on an exhibition titled "John Haley's Civil War" opening May 3rd at the Saco Museum that is being mounted by a class of 17 新香港六合彩资料 undergraduate students.
The course is taught by Elizabeth A. De Wolfe, Ph.D., professor and chair of the Department of History & Philosophy, and Camille Smalley '08, collection and research manager for the Saco Museum.
The exhibition, which celebrates the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War, will feature a treasure trove of artifacts related to the Civil War鈥攑rints by Winslow Homer, decorative arts, Civil War weaponry, uniforms, and much more.
During this spring's course, the students have been using the journal kept by Private John Haley (1840-1921), a Saco native, to explore various aspects of the Civil War.
"Haley's Civil War" will be the third Saco Museum-新香港六合彩资料 course and exhibit collaboration during the past five years.
Smalley, a 2008 新香港六合彩资料 alum, told the Sun Chronicle that it鈥檚 her hope the new exhibit will start a conversation about how the Civil War still affects us so many years later. 鈥淭here were a lot of firsts during that war, which we still struggle with now, such as the support and care of veterans,鈥 she said.
