Subject: Syllabus web site
Walter's comment to Whitney Baker's post ("Course Syllabi Sought," Instance 19:13) reminded me that yes, The Art Conservation Course Syllabus Pages are long overdue for an update. Therefore, I welcome the receipt of information about art conservation courses -now offered or offered in the past, courses you have taught or have taken (I will track down permissions when necessary). I have always taken a very liberal view of what constitutes a "course syllabus" for these pages: A course outline or precis is as acceptable as a formal syllabus. I do not wish to limit contributions to courses taught in the US, or in English. Please do feel free to send me information in paper or electronic form, but I don't need both. My addresses are below. I am happy to coordinate this effort, but I would be very pleased to have some co-coordinators. This is not because the job is so burdensome, but rather because other people will have access to different information and different people. Participation would require about 10-12 hours of work over 4 or 6 months. It seems to me that this would be an excellent "service to the profession" task for someone fairly new to the discipline. Please contact me directly if you can join me. I plan to begin active collection of information about 15 November, with the expectation that this round of updates to the Web Pages will be completed in late March or early April, 2006.
