For the summer of 2017, Theo Koda will be interning at the Haffenreffer Museum as an UTRA (Undergraduate Training and Research Award) recipient. His work will primarily focus on registration and collections management, working with the museum Registrar, Dawn Kimbrel. However, he will have opportunities to work on a wide variety of museum projects and activities. 

During his internship, Koda will be documenting his experiences on his new blog, From Data to Anoxia: The Experiences of an Intern at the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology.  

This blog will serve as a repository of notes and anecdotes based off my experiences working in the museum. Short, sweet, and lighthearted, they will provide a glimpse into life behind the scenes. I hope it will help draw back the curtain that obscures so much about museum work from public eyes.

We encourage you to follow the blog for his behind-the-scenes updates about his work throughout the summer.
