Welcome to the course website for Managing History. Here you'll find everything you need to navigate the semester. Be sure to subscribe to posts from this site as I'll use it as a primary vehicle for course announcements and other assorted stuff you'll need to be aware of. Note too that this site evolves over time with each iteration of Managing History. Browse around to find out who your predecessors were and what they've been up to.
Our theme for this semester concerns local public history controversies including dust-ups at the Philadelphia History Museum, The Barnes Foundation, the Pennhurst State School and Hospital, the USS Olympia, and the President's House. Lots of fascinating issues to wrangle with and right in our own backyard.
Looking forward to a great semester!
