• Ask Dr. Hull about proper statistical analysis of the topic
• "History" final qual paper into article/chapter? (HE or A-LIS?)

 

Thesis Chapters to Transform

• Vernicle Iconography (ch. 3)
• Vernicles and the Mass (ch. 5)
• others may be important as background material for these:
• Review of Literature/Methodology (ch. 1)
• Historical Context (Hagiography, History of the Relic, etc.) (ch. 2)
• Location of Vernicles (ch. 4)
• Conclusion (ch. 6)

 

Academic Library / Higher Ed topics

• education of academic library deans
• PhD/other, major subject, ARL/not, private/public, 2yr/4yr/PhD-granting institution, etc. (also gender?)
• what effect does their education and background have...
• on their libraries? (ability to lead, demonstrable library outcomes, etc.)
• on their salary?
• OR simply study the PhD/other and subject, as a guide to what qualifications are considered when academic library deans are hired
• gender/family issues for students & faculty
