Time Travelers James Juip and Timothy Stone completed successful defenses in early November. James, defending his Ph.D. proposal, shared his vision for using deep maps to help generate engagement with local history. Using platforms such as the Keweenaw Time Traveler, James hopes to help communities and community members take ownership of their history and provide them with a means to preserve and share their stories and memories. Timothy, defending his Master’s thesis, discussed his work with the Calumet and Laurium school records and how he used them to study local children’s environmental exposures from 1920. He presented a methodology for incorporating children’s data into an existing HSDI and argued that research on children’s exposures should focus on all activity spaces, rather than just exposures at home.
