In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole Dyer and Diana Elder speak with Sam Howes, an archivist at Bates College in Maine. They discuss his work managing the official records of the college, including administrative documents, student records, yearbooks, and special collections. Sam explains what types of materials college archives typically maintain, like trustee meeting minutes, presidential records, alumni newsletters, student government documents, and more. He notes that confidentiality restrictions can limit access to some more recent records. The hosts also ask Sam about how and why archival collections get donated to colleges. He explains that materials often relate to notable alumni or tie into existing collections at the school based on its history. As an example, Bates houses an extensive collection belonging to former Maine governor Edmund Muskie. Sam emphasizes that college archives can contain a treasure trove of unexpected information and encourages contacting the archive in advance when planning a research visit.

Born in Lubbock, Texas, Andy Eppler's love of music began while watching his mother sing in church. Having been diagnosed with AD/HD, Andy had to work hard to overcome the challenges posed by traditional schooling, but he ultimately learned how to work in solitude on various projects, and once he graduated from South Plains College with a commercial music degree, there was no stopping him.Andy Eppler has been as prolific as an artist can be, having authored many songs, books, art pieces and films. In 2022, Texas Tech University announced a new Andy Eppler Collection to be added to their University Archives alongside other artists such as Waylon Jennings, Buddy Holly and Natalie Maines. He considers the most meaningful waypoints in his career to be associated with political activism, cultural change and community outcomes. His goal isn't to become famous, but to become meaningful. He hopes his passion can be fertilizer for other artists who want to grow their hearts. He wants his life to be measured in inspiration.

There's a brand new exhibition on display on the campus of Florida Gulf Coast University called “They Were Children: Rescue as Resistance.” It brings the story of the Oeuvre de Secours Aux Enfants' (OSE) — amazing group of everyday people who worked at great risk to themselves to rescue Jewish children in Nazi-occupied France during World War Two.

In the late 1960s, as college campuses became hotbeds of liberal protest, conservative college groups, like the Intercollegiate Society of Individualists (ISI), the Young Americans for Freedom (YAF), and College Republicans, backed by powerful conservative elders and their deep pockets, fought back, staging counter protests, publishing conservative newspapers, taking over student governments, and suing colleges to remain open. Joining me in this episode to discuss the campus right in more detail is Dr. Lauren Lassabe Shepherd, author of Resistance from the Right: Conservatives and the Campus Wars in Modern America.

Episode Notes There's more to food than just what's on your plate. Food can be a weapon of suppression and a tool of resistance. In fact, food was one contested site of freedom during the Civil Rights Movement. Dr. Bobby J. Smith II details this story in Food Power Politics: The Food Story of the Mississippi Civil Rights Movement. Today we discuss the 1962-1963 Greenwood, Mississippi Food Blockade and the subsequent Food for Freedom program. This is just one part of the broader food justice movement from the Civil Rights era to present-day that Dr. Smith examines in Food Power Politics.   Dr. Bobby J. Smith II is an interdisciplinary scholar of the African American agricultural and food experience. He is an Assistant Professor in the Department of African American Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, with affiliations in the Department of Food Science & Human Nutrition and the Center for Social & Behavioral Science. His work has been supported by the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS), National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi, Special Collections and University Archives at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Institute in partnership with the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, among others.

The Flying Santa is a tradition that dates back to 1929, serving to express gratitude to lighthouse keepers, Coast Guard personnel, and their families through Yuletide visits by plane or helicopter. The tradition was started by Captain William Wincapaw, a pioneering Maine aviator. To show his appreciation for the people at the lighthouses in Midcoast Maine, he loaded up his seaplane with packages containing newspapers, magazines, and other gifts, and he dropped them at the lighthouses on Christmas Day. The Flying Santa plane over Graves Lighthouse in Massachusetts in 1937. Bickford's restaurants was an early sponsor of the flights. Captain Bill Wincapaw in 1936. Alton H. Blackington Collection (PH 061). Special Collections and University Archives, University of Massachusetts Amherst Libraries. The flights got such a positive reaction that Wincapaw expanded them to more of the Maine coast and the other New England states. The popular maritime historian Edward Rowe Snow became involved in 1936, and he kept the tradition going through 1980. From 1981 to 1997, the flights were carried out by the Hull Lifesaving Museum in Massachusetts. A new nonprofit organization, Friends of Flying Santa, was created in 1997. Today, Santa travels by helicopter in the weeks leading up to Christmas to stops from northern Maine to Long Island, New York, bringing holiday cheer to more than 1000 children of Coast Guard families. Edward Rowe Snow with his wife Anna-Myrle and daughter Dolly in the 1950s.

We started out as the show that invited scholars, makers, and professionals to brunch for informal conversations about their work—but last season, we needed to record remotely. This year we're excited to be able to bring back in-person interviews while still taking advantage of the flexibility afforded by our remote setup.This episode is a little different from what we usually do, in that the focus isn't one person's work but rather a new tool designed to enhance knowledge access for everyone. It's called Marble, and it's a collaboration between Notre Dame's Hesburgh Libraries and Snite Museum of Art developed with a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Marble is an online portal that lets users all over the world view and learn about materials from the Snite Museum, Rare Books & Special Collections, and the University Archives in a way that is so cool it made us want to do a show literally about a website.And to cover everything that makes Marble special, we tried something else different: Not one but two interviews, with two people who have played distinct roles in its creation.First you'll hear from Mikala Narlock, digital collections librarian at the Hesburgh Libraries, who analyzed how content would be uploaded to Marble. Mikala and host Ted Fox talked on a windy day outside the library about the user experience—the types of artifacts available in the platform, what shows up on your screen when you run a search, why this is different than what existed before, and importantly, how anyone can use it, regardless of whether they have an affiliation with Notre Dame.After Mikala, it's Erika Hosselkus, a special collections curator and Latin American studies librarian at the Hesburgh Libraries who led the content team for the Marble project. Erika and Ted met up in Rare Books and Special Collections at the library, where they talked about how the materials Marble gives people access to can inform teaching, research, and just our collective consciousness, not to mention how digital discovery can actually serve as an important gateway to the physical collections themselves.LINKSMarble website: marble.nd.eduEpisode Transcript

This podcast episode uncovers Renaissance man and activist Paul Robeson's musical performances while attending Rutgers in the early 20th century. Using the Rutgers Special Collections and University Archives we will discuss Robeson's experiences at Rutgers and how they reflect upon his legacy and his life after graduating. The episode uses Paul Robeson's life as a vehicle to understand the Rutgers archives and their importance to the community, and in connecting the past to the present. --- Podcast by Ray Bess Interview with Erika Gorder Special thanks to Rutgers Special Collections and University Archives, The Paul Robeson House & Museum, The Paul Robeson Cultural Center, The Paul Robeson Collection, Erika Gorder, Anthony Fatovic, Jaclyn Fanelli, William Westerman, and James Malchow,

Filled with high quality paintings by notable Renaissance artists, the outstanding Burke Collection of Italian miniatures is the subject of this podcast.  Sandra Hindman sits down to discuss her work on the newly published Burke Collection catalogue with her co-editor Federica Toniolo and with Gaudenz Freuler. Federica Toniolo is Professor of the history of illuminated manuscripts and medieval art at the University of Padua and co-author of the recent catalogue of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, among many other important publications.  Gaudenz Freuler is Professor Emerita at the University of Zurich and is a world-renowned expert on Italian miniature painting from the twelfth to sixteenth century. The Burke Collection is on deposit in the Special Collections and University Archives of the Stanford Libraries in California.  Did manuscript illuminators ever produce monumental paintings? What is the relationship between the history of monumental painting and illumination? What makes printed collection catalogues special, as opposed to digitized collections? Through a glimpse at highlights from the Burke Collection, you can learn more about the versatile artists of the Renaissance many of whom skillfully worked in both media – hence the title “The Burke Collection of Italian Manuscript Paintings.”  Our host and her guests share their knowledge, covering artists such as Fra Angelico, Zanobi Strozzi, Battista di Biagio Sanguigni, Cimabue, Tommaso da Modena, and Lorenzo Monaco. They discuss the literature, paleography, music, and context of the paintings in the Burke Collection, with emphasis on reconstructing illuminations and panel paintings to contribute a more complete image of the artistic culture of late Gothic and Renaissance Italy.  Order your copy of The Burke Collection of Italian Manuscript Paintings from Paul Holberton Publishing.

Towards an Age-Friendly World with Wendy Miller “As we get older, we use both sides of our brain, not in a compensatory way, but in a synthetic way.”— Wendy Miller, Ph.D. ATR-BC, LCPAT, REAT, LPC, BCPC Thank you for joining us for This is Getting Old: Moving Towards an Age-Friendly World podcast. This special series is sponsored by a 2020 George Washington (GW) University’s University Seminar Series award, Towards Age-Friendly, and is brought to you by MelissaBPhD in collaboration with GW’s Center for Aging, Health, and Humanities. It’s been proven that when people challenge their minds, have a sense of mastery and control, when their social engagement is increased, they not only do better, they feel better. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Wendy Miller, author of Sky Above Clouds: Finding Our Way Through Creativity, Aging, and Illness. The key areas we covered in this episode:  Understanding the work of Wendy’s late husband, Dr. Gene Cohen. Understanding the term “creative aging.” How the arts and art-making are like “chocolate to the brain." The “Four S’s in Age-Friendly Creative Aging” and their importance. Part One of ‘Towards an Age-Friendly World with Dr. Wendy Miller’ An important piece of creativity, particularly as we get older, is legacy work, what we do with the memories and the archives of people we love. She felt a strong responsibility because Gene Cohen had many unpublished works, considering both of them are into creativity, health, and aging.  When does a creative aging start, and how do we come to understand creativity? The thing is, the word creativity stirs up everything. Some people would say, "Well, you're creative because you're an artist, but what about me?"  Our understanding of creativity with aging has been limited. As a result of the heavy legacy of negative myths and stereotypes about aging (ageism), all of which have denied or trivialized our creative capacity and the accomplishments that we have in the second half of our life. “Aging is not just about surviving. It's about growing in the face of diversity.” — Wendy Miller, Ph.D. ATR-BC, LCPAT, REAT, LPC, BCPC In 2001, Dr. Gene wrote the book: The Creative Age: Awakening Human Potential in the Second Half of Life. It was the first book to articulate this new paradigm about looking not just at the problems of aging, but at this emerging field of creative aging. C=ME2 is Creativity = Mass of Knowledge + Experience2 His book documents discoveries in neuroscience that radically challenge these conventional assumptions about aging, and aging is really the best example of how the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.  There are built-in developmental drives that push us toward creative expression, and they push us towards psychological growth throughout our life cycle. His research doesn't just respond to aging. It's trying to shape aging.  Part Two of ‘Towards an Age-Friendly World with Wendy Miller’ Our brain is continually sculpting itself. The aging brain isn't running out of gas, it’s moving into all-wheel-drive. This post-formal thinking transforms our life. It transforms our life experience into what we commonly call wisdom. The arts are like “chocolate to the brain”. Creativity is built into the human species. The arts can be singing, dancing, cooking, gardening and also giving back to the community and volunteering.  But creativity can also be designing a new lecture, a new way to teach someone how to do something, or learning a new skill that lets you do either of those things in an innovative way.  What it boils down to is that as we get older, we use both sides of our brain not in a compensatory way but in a synthetic way. The more you use it, the more you are protected against Alzheimer's disease. COVID has challenged everyone to be creative with how we connect with each other using technology. “Creativity encourages these evolving strengths. They don't just happen on their own.” —  Wendy Miller, Ph.D. ATR-BC, LCPAT, REAT, LPC, BCPC How would you feel if more older adults get involved in creative artworks? Aging is not just about surviving. It’s about growing meaning in the face of adversity. Creativity optimizes problem-solving and affects interpersonal connections that leads us into our strengths.  What makes This Is Getting Old podcast exciting is that it includes a focus on the humanities. This is a case for qualitative medicine - use of narrative, listening, writing, case histories, keen observation, and empathy, and imagination - to look at strength and satisfactions because they are the essence of human strength and resilience. Many people in the world do not have the right image of aging. Intergenerational creative activities and interactions have the ability to change that. As a society,  if we only look at the Signs and Symptoms of aging, we will miss the Strengths and Satisfaction with aging. It matters because creativity encourages these strengths that lead to increased satisfaction with our lives as we age.  Older adults have life stories that benefit younger adults, stories of resilience and overcoming hardship. Media outlets have reported many older adults are actually weathering COVID better than younger generations. Many older adults also are still experiencing higher levels of emotional well-being than younger adults. We can all learn from this group of Americans that are often age-segregated, and we need to find intergenerational ways to do just that - to benefit both older AND younger adults. Being age-friendly means things are friendly for everyone. Wendy ends the interview with these words: "The creative faculty is what draws us to life, calls forth our love, our resilience, our strength, and our capacity to choose not only life itself but to choose what enlivens us. Sky above clouds opens us not only to potential, but to the essential.”  Wendy Miller Bio:  Wendy Miller, Ph.D. ATR-BC, LCPAT, REAT, LPC, BCPC is a writer, sculptor, educator, and mental health provider in expressive arts therapy. She taught for over fifteen years in various universities throughout the country, including John F Kennedy University, San Francisco State University, Southwestern College, Lesley College, California Institute of Integral Studies, and The George Washington University. She is the co-founder of Create Therapy Institute in Kensington, MD, which offers clinical services in arts-based psychotherapy and training in the expressive arts. She is a founding member, and first elected (past) executive co-chair of the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association, where she continues to be on their Advisory Council. She is also an Advisory Board Member of the Peter Alfond Prevention & Healthy Living Center at MaineGeneral Health. She continues the legacy of her late husband’s work, pioneer of creative aging, Gene Cohen, and his Washington DC Center on Aging, where she works on projects in intergenerational communication.   Miller’s skills take her into the worlds of fine art, writing, psychology, expressive arts therapy and mind-body medicine.  She has published on medical illness and the arts as complementary medicine, the use of sand tray therapy with internationally adopted children, experiential approaches to supervision in expressive arts therapy, and on the cultural responsibility of the arts in therapy. She continues to research the relationships among the arts, creativity and health, particularly in her book which draws from the writing she and her late husband, Gene Cohen did together, entitled: Sky Above Clouds: Finding our way through creativity, aging and illness (Oxford University Press, 2016).
