=The Rose Across the Curriculum=

Let's use this wiki space to share ideas about drawing on the Rose Art Museum in diverse forms of teaching and learning across the curriculum. What specific art works in the current 2009-10 exhibition (drawn from the Rose's permanent collection) might stimulate productive conversation in specific classes, disciplines and interdisciplinary exchanges? How might the recent controversy over the future of the Museum and its collection be incorporated into syllabi and classroom discussions? How might the Rose be used to foster experiential and community engaged learning projects, in collaboration with local community partners?
