SUMMARY:CUR Conversation: Undergraduate Research and the Public Humanities
DESCRIPTION:What are the unique opportunities and challenges for combining undergraduate research with public engagement? How can institutional archives (and archivists) support undergraduate research more effectively? What are the best practices for working with community-based partners?
