When I signed up for the course I was contemplating a career change, having completed a B.A. in biology but no longer desiring a laboratory position. Dr. Smead’s course confirmed my desire to become a historian, and that fall I began the graduate program in the history of science at Hopkins. I am thrilled to say that since then I've published my first book, The Oyster Question: Scientists, Watermen, and the Maryland Chesapeake Bay since 1880, and am an Associate Professor of Science, Technology, and Society in the Public Policy Department at Rochester Institute of Technology.” Posted on March 15, 2011 8:58 AM | Permalink Part-time Museum Assistants Wanted*The Sewall-Belmont House & Museum, home of the historic National If interested, please go to the following website to find an official employment application: Elisabeth Crum Posted on March 9, 2011 4:14 PM | Permalink Congratulations to Bailey BallCongratulations to Bailey Ball, a graduate student in Historical Studies.
