In September, Teaching Assistant Professor of Museum Studies Deirdre Smith's exhibit "We Humans" at 70: Educating Pittsburgh on Race in the 1950s opened at the Hyland Gallery at Hillman Library. The exhibit focuses on "We Humans," an exhibit on race and racism developed by two curators of Anthropology at the Carnegie Museum that opened in downtown Pittsburgh in 1955. Smith is jointly appointed as a curator at Carnegie Museum of Natural History (CMNH), and drew on research, collaboration and loans from both CMNH, and Carnegie Museum of Art, to bring the story of "We Humans" to Hillman.
