Someone training for the wrong line of work at the University of Iowa
UI anthropology student Morgan Hansen, who is seeking a certificate in museum studies, felt "unnerved" by the idea that art could have been stolen during the flood.
That's a student who should consider other degree certifications; she's quoted about the University of Iowa's failure during the floods this year to move all the art objects to safe storage and then back again without a few things going missing.
OF COURSE people steal from art museums during natural disasters, and one should automatically plan to watch the movers carefully. Never heard of things "falling off the truck?" Maybe she shouldn't go into museum work - she's too optimistic about human nature.
