Hello,

I do not subscribe to this listserv, but a friend of mine does and forwarded
this thread to me.  I attempted to attached documents but your listserv
rejected them, they are work I did for my Master's Thesis in Museology (AKA
Museum Studies) at the University of Washington in 2007.  If anyone in
interested just drop me a line at [log in to unmask] and I can send you any
of the following documents:

My thesis, *Museology in the United States: An Analysis of the Museum
Studies Field;* a large list of museum studies and other academic programs
that train for museum work; and two documents containing more detailed
information about more specifically museum studies and museology programs
that was completed for another project.

I am happy to share my research and hope that it is useful to others!
