Leslie Rose will graduate from Pitt in April 2017 as a History of Art and Architecture major with a minor in Museum Studies. Her research centers on issues of diversity and representation in modern and contemporary art.
Dheeraj K. Jalluri is a senior Neuroscience major from Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, with a strong interest in art history, philosophy, and related disciplines. His interests in art history have been sustained greatly by an interdisciplinary research project he has been pursuing at Pitt under the guidance of Dr. Alison Langmead and the Visual Media Workshop.
Sarah Grossman is a junior majoring in Architectural Studies with a minor in Music. Architecture was never the field she originally thought would end up as her major, but after just one day working in an inspirational building, the new PNC Tower in downtown Pittsburgh, she switched over to architecture from studying music and anthropology.
I’ve spent the past month analyzing an Urchin Report on the usage of Medart. Google Urchin was Google Analytics predecessor. I was using Urchin 7 which is the newest version, but it was released back in 2010, so there haven’t been any recent updates to it. I was warned that not every aspect of the software would work, and I found that to be true. There were no visitor data, but there were data on how many visits and hits there were to the site.
Political correctness has been pushed to propagate the idea of distance between the political elite to the working class and distract people from the larger, more substantial issues at hand. One of the most relevant issues, racism, has been skirted around despite its continual relevancy to the problems of modern society. Racism has always existed, and continues to exist. Its presence, impact, and definition have changed, but are still visible.
Hi!
Hello,
My name is Victoria Johngrass, and I am a freshman working in accordance with the Office of First Experience in Research with Dr. Drew Armstrong and Lily Brewer. As I joined the project late, there will be a lot of catching up to do, but I am eager to contribute to this.
I have been working on Decmposing Bodies for over a month now and I have noticed interesting facts about the Ohio State Reformatory prisoners.
I recently finished the finding aid for PITT_EDU–medart. PITT_EDU–medart is a folder containing the earliest version of medart. It was the primary directory for medart until they created VRCOLL out of a need for more storage space. However, instead of moving the contents of PITT_EDU–medart onto VRCOLL, they continued to maintain it. PITT_EDU–medart served as the nucleus of medart in that the contents of VRCOLL often linked back to material in PITT_EDU–medart.
