Blowing the (Red) Whistle on Bad Ideas in Museum Practice.
I was tickled to receive a red plastic whistle in the mail last week.
I have been awarded membership in the "Red Whistle Club" by Serrell & Associates for "outstanding achievements in unfailing vigilance to audience needs and unhesitating readiness to blow the whistle on bad ideas in museum practice."
I will, of course, wear (and use!) my red whistle proudly.
Do you have someone in mind who would make a fine member of the Red Whistle Club?
If so, just send the nominating information below to Beverly Serrell via the email address found here.
Submit an application with the following information:
1. Name
2. Title
3. E-mail address
4. Reason or rationale for nomination—What makes this person worthy of a Red Whistle Award? How did he or she “blow the whistle”? (maximum 300 words)
5. Who is submitting the nomination? (you may submit yourself)
Awardees receive an official certificate and an actual red whistle.
GOOD LUCK!
