Williams College Awards Eleven Master's in Art History Degrees - June 02, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN - Williams College, "which holds a unique place in art academia: incubator of curators and scholars," in collaboration with the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, offers a two-year graduate program in preparation for careers in teaching and museums.
The curriculum consists of seminars in art historical subjects and an intensive study of foreign languages in the context of the general literature of art. Problems of criticism, connoisseurship, and conservation arising from the study of original works of art are fundamental to the program, and opportunities are provided for practical experience in museum work at The Clark, the William College Museum of Art in Williamstown, and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art in nearby North Adams, a trio of significant art museums and resources in the northern Berkshires.
At its Commencement Exercises on Sunday, June 1, Williams awarded 11 students master's degrees on completion of the Graduate Program in the History of Art.
Katherine Dyer Alcauskas - Woodbridge, Virginia
Julie Katharine Blake - Ottawa, Ontario
Erin Rene Corrales-Diaz - Port Orchard, Washington
Hannah Joy Friedman - Troyes, France

Tianyue Jiang - Dalian, China
George Philip LeBourdais - Harpswell, Maine
Stephanie Lynn Schumann - New York, NY
Jennifer Augusta Sichel - Atlanta, Georgia

Professor Marc Gotlieb is director of the program. His broad academic interests include eighteenth and nineteenth-century European painting and sculpture, criticism, and interpretation. He has also taught at the University of Toronto and Emory University. |
