University Libraries’ Special Collections invites the University and Hattiesburg communities to an exhibit opening and reception from 4-5 p.m. Tuesday, April 16, in McCain Library and Archives room 305 to highlight exhibits curated by three Southern Miss students. 

The Special Collections’ student curator program provides students with the opportunity to curate one-case exhibits featuring materials from the collections. Students learn how to select items for display, install the materials, write label and exhibit text, and publicize the exhibit. 

This year’s exhibits feature the work of a library and information science undergraduate, a library and information science graduate student, and a history graduate student.
