My third week was the most important because in this week I had (sort of) finished moving and was able to focus more on this project. I was able to go to the library and found an awesome article about the sailor on the Lexington. I also found a nice spread that had the history of the Lexington that I want to include on the exhibit board. When looking through the vertical file, however, I did not find the section that the library kept for any of my three other places. I was especially surprised that I couldn't find anything on the Courthouse. There was no one there to help me with the vertical files. A lady came up to tell me how to scan the articles i find interesting and told me that someone else would be up in about 20 minutes but after looking around for about 40 minutes no one came to help so i went to look for books downstairs (I don't think that the lady that came to our class was there). Over the weekend my mother bought my exhibit board because now we had somewhere to put it where it wouldn't get lost or damaged at all. Mine will be a bit rushed, but I don't want it to look rushed so I'm probably going to spend time late this evening on it. Overall though I think I have a pretty solid amout of information from the internet, and I found a few really cool pictures, especially of Bill Witt and the Courthouse. I'll have to take a few pictures of the Memorial building right now to make up for the lack of pictures there are for that building. You would've thought that if its the oldest building on the East campus there would be at least a few pictures of it.
