Current
Projects
The Association is seeking donations
and planning exhibits for the Russell J. Rassbach Heritage Museum and
Stout's History website. Current plans call for
the initial exhibit installation to be open in early October 2005.
Preserving and Providing Access to University History
Stout University Foundation Grant
$4,942 was awarded to Don Steffen, university editor, to provide more
permanent and wider access to UW-Stout historical information, documents
and artifacts. During the past two years, the Stout Historical Association
has been working on developing more systematic ways to preserve and share
the university’s history. It is receiving an increasing number of
documents and artifacts. At this point, the SHA feels it appropriate to
explore the use of a Web-based virtual museum to provide wide access to
this historical information. In addition, there is a unique opportunity
to videotape an outstanding historical presentation on Senator Stout and
his family that is based on extensive research by Ellwyn Hendrickson.
