Emil Haury - Field Work and Experience

Field Work and Experience

One of the first field experiences came in 1925. That year he was apprenticed to Byron Cummings, A.E. Douglass, and Harold Gladwin where their major work occurred at Cuicuilco right outside of Mexico City. It was at this time that he became one of Cummings' (who was at the time the acting university president) most important assistants. It was through connections made through Cummings that Haury was in attendance at the first Pecos Conference in 1927.

Famous quotes containing the words field, work and/or experience:

    “My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital. I sometimes discuss the application of a compress or a wisp of hay under a broken limb, but not the bearing and merits of a political movement. I make gruel—not speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.”
    —Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    “Our work ... is to present things that are as they are.”
    —Frederick II Hohenstaufen (1194–1250)

    “Many people, especially women, never experience boredom because they have never learned to work properly.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
