  • Art Engagement and the College Curriculum: Factors and Strategies for Success in Collection-Based Teaching
    67 — VOLUME 10 2018 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Art engagement and the college curriculum: factors and strategies for success in collection-based teaching Liliana Milkova Abstract This article identifies and analyzes key factors that have contributed to the extensive integration of the Allen Memorial Art Museum’s encyclo- pedic collection into Oberlin College’s curriculum. These factors include support from the college administration; visionary museum leader- ship; funding to initiate and sustain inter-departmental programs and hire staff dedicated to academic outreach; structures to equip faculty with basic art historical knowledge and skills; customized art pedago- gies to match teaching and learning needs, and making collections physically, intellectually, and digitally accessible to the academic com- munity. The article further suggests strategies for initiating and build- ing robust academic programs at other academic museums. 68 — VOLUME 10 2018 UNIVERSITY MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS JOURNAL Introduction The Allen Memorial Art Museum (AMAM), also known as ‘the Allen’, is part of Oberlin College, a small liberal arts institution with a renowned conservatory of music, located near Cleveland in north- east Ohio. The museum houses an extraordinary encyclopedic collection of over 15,000 objects and has served the academic community, always free of charge, across disciplines and programs since 1917 when the doors opened for the first time. Primarily a teaching institution, the AMAM ranks among the top campus art museums in the USA and its long history of collaborations between faculty and staff has generated innovative object-based pedagogies that enable interdisciplinary thinking and research throughout the liberal arts curriculum of the college.

    SERIES DESCRIPTIONS SUBGROUP I. NANCY S. DYE PRESIDENTIAL PAPERS, 1948 (1994-2007)-2007 (116.23 l.f.) Series 1. Annual Reports, 1994-96 (0.1 l.f.) Arranged chronologically, the annual reports series contains a limited number (7) of reports submitted to the president by academic departments and administrative units. Series 2. Calendars, Logbooks, & Itineraries, 1994-2007 (8.97 l.f.) The files in this series detail the daily schedule and activity of the president over the course of thirteen years. Materials document Dyeʼs meetings and travels both on and off campus. Files were created and maintained by Dye and her administrative assistants. The series consists of three subseries: Subseries 1. Appointment Calendars, 1994-2007 (0.6 l.f.) The calendars contain specific details (time, date, and location) concerning President Dyeʼs appointments, meetings, and trips. The scheduled events include both professional (i.e., campaign fundraising, candidate interviews, senior staff meetings) and personal (i.e., family activities, trips abroad, vacations). Arranged chronologically. Subseries 2. Telephone Message Logbooks, 1994-2006 (3.37 l.f.) The 66 logbooks contain telephone messages for Dye recorded by her office staff. The presidentʼs secretaries and administrative assistants took messages in separate logbooks during the same period, so some overlap of time span exists. Arranged chronologically. Of special note are scheduling calendars, maintained by the presidentʼs office, for use of the Cass Gilbert room (2002-04). Subseries 3. Itineraries, 1994-2006 (5 l.f.)* The bulk of President Dyeʼs itineraries document her travels outside of CONTACT _Con-3D7BB4891 \c \s \l Oberlin College, although there are a number for college events (i.e., student picnic 1995, CONTACT _Con-3D7BB4891 \c \s \l Oberlin College-Schools Partnership meeting 2000).

IP address: Department of Educational Leadership, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, USA *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] 170.106.33.19 Abstract This essay examines the history of what is commonly called the town-gown relationship in American college towns in the six decades after the Second World War. A time of con- , on siderable expansion of higher education enrollment and function, the period also marks 27 Sep 2021 at 05:58:52 an increasing detachment of higher education institutions from their local communities. Once closely tied by university offices that advised the bulk of their students in off-campus housing, those bonds between town and gown began to come apart in the 1970s, due pri- marily to legal and economic factors that restricted higher education institutions’ out- reach. Given the importance of off-campus life to college students, over half of whom have historically lived off campus, the essay argues for increased research on college , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at towns in the history of higher education. Keywords: town gown; college town; off-campus housing; college student housing; in loco parentis A typical workday for Carl Opp, director of Off-Campus Housing at the University of Florida
