Advisory Board

The advisory board’s charge is to support the work of the Executive Director by serving as a resource and a sounding board, providing valuable feedback and insight as we build and expand on the existing research into Tulane’s history.
 
By pooling the talents, resources, and collective expertise of a range of Tulane and New Orleans community members, the Advisory Board will help to ensure that the work of the History Project is thorough and accurate and that we maintain open channels of communication with stakeholders across the university and the city.
