Come to URCAD on Wednesday, April 26 and join with Debbie Farthing who will reveal “Unpacking Margaret: The Other Life of Margaret Patricia Killian”.

Debbie will present a digital exhibit that will reveal another side of Margaret Killian, long-time head of the Home Economics department at the University of Omaha, through a group of objects found in a steamer trunk that belonged to her. These objects, along with other outside sources, show how Margaret acted as an agent in building a vibrant and active life, rather than that of a lonely spinster academic.
