| Skidmore's Tang Teaching Museum and
Art Gallery currently features an art-and-science exhibition
entitled Molecules That Matter, in which "history
students consider spices as 'molecules that mattered to
medieval Europe,' business students calculate molecules'
market values; and classics students set forth in search of
'ancient molecules that matter.'"
Since the Tang opened in 2000, Skidmore faculty members
have been encouraged to propose and co-curate their own
exhibitions. Many small shows and five major
exhibitions--including the current "Molecules That
Matter" -- were co-curated by Skidmore faculty members
hailing from disciplines that span the liberal arts
curriculum, from biology to American studies to physics. It is
a distinguishing feature of the exhibition schedule at the
Tang."
