When it was time to remove the display on May 17, the archivist ARCHIVIST. One to whose care the archives have been confided. noted that the similar displays her department had featured in the past had received little or no response. She was pleased that the "Week of the Classroom Teacher" display, in contrast, generated many compliments from library and university staff and visitors. As we removed the exhibit, people stopped to ask why we were taking it down. Encouraged by the high level of interest, we plan to continue to work closely with the Archives to raise awareness for the teaching profession. --Gina Hoagland, Public Relations public relations, activities and policies used to create public interest in a person, idea, product, institution, or business establishment.
