Description
This collection includes materials assembled and organized by William R. Alschuler, California Institute of the Arts science
faculty, for a class on the AIDS epidemic he was teaching in 1993-96, "AIDS as exhibit." It contains flyers, handouts, newsletters,
and other publications from numerous public health departments and community based organizations in California and around
the country with information about AIDS transmission and prevention, treatment, testing protocols, nutrition, service organizations,
legal rights and educational resources as well as newspaper and journal clippings and course syllabi about the history of
the AIDS epidemic. The final project of this class included exhibits curated by students that were displayed in hallways at
