Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Thank you.
I would like to express my cup-runneth-over gratitude to Nicole Watson, director of The Catherine G. Murphy Gallery at St. Catherine University. She championed the exhibition, believing in me and my vision even when I didn't have the words to explain it. Nicole gave generously of her time and expertise while I worked it all out, pulling the inside outward, turning an idea into a reality.
Many thanks to Kimberlee Roth, Ann Buchen, Jennifer Adam, the many student workers who assisted with this project and for the support of the St. Catherine University Art and Art History Department. Thanks to Mollie Hazelton and Dr. Kyunghye Yoon of St. Catherine University Masters of Library and Information Science Program without whose support and encouragement this project would not have come to fruition. Much gratitude to Dr. Jayme Yahr and the University of St. Thomas Museum Studies Program: they have shown incredible support during the two years it took to create this exhibition.
