Katherine Rhame is a junior double majoring in Neuroscience and the History of Art and Architeture. Her research project for HAA 1010 on Visualizing Heritage in Pittsburgh looks at the connection between the culture of Austrian Empire when Austria held significant power and land, and how that image was chosen to represent ideas of identity among the Austrian immigrants when designing the Austrian Nationality Room (dedicated in 1996).
