Students in the CAS Engineering Boston class explored the West End Museum archives March 18, with the aim of using documents, photos, magazines, and maps to construct a curriculum about urban renewal in Boston. While the archives are digitized, CAS History Professor Betty Anderson brings her students, among them Mona Zhang (CAS’29) (left) and Yishan He (CAS’28), to the museum for the tactile experience of exploring documents, photos, magazines, and maps. Once they find an aspect of Boston’s West End to focus on, the students will work in teams to construct a curriculum about urban renewal in Boston.
