It\u2019s been a long semester but you made it. Here in the Archives &amp; Special Collections, we\u2019ve had a very busy (and exciting!) fall.<\/p>\n<p>We started the semester strong by welcoming two new student employees, Sita and Mali. We also participated in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugetsound.edu\/academics\/academic-resources\/race-pedagogy-institute\/2018-race-pedagogy-national-conference\/\">Race &amp; Pedagogy National Conference<\/a>. Adriana Flores, our Archivist and Special Collections Librarian, spoke on a panel titled \u201cThe Liberated Archive: Creating Inclusive Spaces for all Histories\u201d, and Peer Research Specialist Julia curated an exhibit on Japanese-American incarceration and historical memory using materials from our collections.<\/p>\n<p>We held two \u201cBehind the Archives Door\u201d events this semester \u2013 one highlighting the <a href=\"http:\/\/archiveswest.orbiscascade.org\/ark:\/80444\/xv92553\">Claire and Don Egge Collection on China<\/a>, and one on student activism in which Dennis Flannigan, Class of 1961, spoke about his work registering African-American voters during the 1964 Freedom Summer. The A&amp;SC also collaborated with Humanities Librarian Katy Curtis to host three zine reading hours utilizing the <a href=\"http:\/\/archiveswest.orbiscascade.org\/ark:\/80444\/xv983611\">Collins Library Zine Collection<\/a>. Professors, liaison librarians, the A&amp;SC staff came together to teach a total of 28 class sessions this semester, allowing students to examine and analyze primary sources firsthand.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, it\u2019s been a great semester here in the A&amp;SC, and we\u2019re excited to see what the spring semester brings. In the meantime, get studying for those finals like the students seen in these pictures! We won\u2019t have open hours during reading period or finals week, but if you want to use archival or special collections materials for any projects or papers, you can make an appointment by emailing archives@pugetsound.edu.<\/p>\n<p><em>By Julia Masur<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy last day of classes, Loggers!
