Burke 101


BURKE 101 is a fresh, new weekend program that puts you in touch with current and relevant scholarly inquiry by bringing University of Washington and Burke research into the museum gallery with UW students as your interpreters. Each quarter a different college credit course is created in which students learn content and teaching methods from faculty and graduate students. On weekends they bring changing, presentations, hands-on collections, images, and other media resources into the public galleries to give visitors the richest natural history museum experience possible. More than a behind-the-scenes look at the collections, this is your chance to learn about and discuss a wide range of issues and questions from biological evolution to contemporary Native American art.
