We invite you to visit the pop-up exhibit, "An Enduring Presence: The Old Man of the Mountain," curated by the Museum of the White Mountains. On loan from the museum, this exhibit commemorates the 20th anniversary of the iconic symbol's fall in May 2003.

Discover the profound impact of the "Old Man" profile, its identity as a New Hampshire state symbol, and its role in political and commercial materials. At the 150th “Birthday Party” for the Old Man, President Eisenhower asked, “What does the Old Man think of us?” What would he think of us today?

Located in the Institute's lobby, this exhibit is a visual timeline, exploring the cultural significance of the Old Man of the Mountain. On display through February 2024. View the Online Exhibit Here.

Funding provided by New Hampshire Humanities.

Dr. Ball is the William H. Payne Collegiate Professor of Education at the University of Michigan, an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, and
the founding director of TeachingWorks.

Her talk will examine the powerful role that teaching plays in reproducing injustice, but how it also can serve to be a powerful lever for advancing a just society. Connections will be drawn between macro-level historical, sociopolitical, and societal systems and micro-level practices that comprise the everyday work of teaching. We will ground our explorations in the context of elementary mathematics teaching and will analyze the discretionary spaces inherent in practice and how these can be used to disrupt patterns of inequity and marginalization. Implications for other subjects
will be highlighted as well

Sponsored by: The Bean Distinguished Lecturer Series, The Diversity & Inclusion Innovation Fund (DIIF Award), and The Education Society of Saint Anselm College
