Online Exhibit Worth Checking Out 

There is a informative and attractive online exhibit that this year's intern in Institute Archives and Special Collections, Amber J. D'Ambrosio, spent a lot of time on and deserves your attention. It's about the many performance spaces RPI groups used over the years before EMPAC was erected.

One thing I discovered is that the building that housed the library before it moved into its present building--the chapel that is now the Voorhees Computing Center--was under consideration to be transformed into a performing arts center.  Wouldn't that have made a divine dwelling for the performing arts! 

View the exhibit, Dim the Lights...Performance Spaces at Rensselaer at  http://www.lib.rpi.edu/dept/library/html/Archives/gallery/performance_spaces/index.html  
You'll be glad you did.
