USC: Museum of Education

Welcome to the Museum of Education, founded in 1977
To schedule an event in the Exhibition Area or in the Travelstead Room		Information: Once housing an extensive archival collection of educational materials, the Museum of Education now serves exclusively as a museum with its exhibitions, publications, and programs portraying the perennial issues of education as a means to generate thoughtful discussion among members of the university community and general public. Residing within the College of Education building, Wardlaw Hall, the Museum of Education includes a gallery, The Chester C. Travelstead Seminar Room, an outdoor patio, and closed-archival area totaling over 3000 square feet. By the standards of public museums, the Museum remains a small and highly-focused research/public programming entity.
Museum Exhibition Hours: Monday-Friday; 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. Current Exhibitions: But What About Us? Pat Conroy at the Daufuskie Island School Hall of Honor: J. A.
