A Trip Back in Time 

Curated by Assistant Professor of English, Dr. Patricia Murphy, in collaboration with the Oneida County History Center, an exhibit called Dinosaur Technologies: Communications From the Past, was on-display in the Gannett Gallery for part of the recent fall semester.  

Have you ever wondered what your great-great grandfather’s telephone looked like?  And how did people ever communicate before texts? Imagine what things were like before Snapchat and TikTok. Come find out how people communicated in the “good old days” and in the “good old-old days.” This exhibit featured some amazing old inventions and information about the people who had the vision to come up with them and some awesome interactive features. The exhibit was also covered by local media.
