Students dig site's cool finds

A front-page story in the Metro section focuses on the archeological work being done by Wayne State University students at a former workers' row house in Detroit 's Corktown neighborhood. The excavation is part of a five-credit course taught by professor Thomas Killion of the Anthropology Department called "Rebuilding the Past of Detroit's Working Class." Artifacts and research will go to the Workers' Row House Experience, a Cool Cities project, for possible inclusion in the future Workers' Row House Museum . The goal of the excavation is to help form a complete picture of Detroit 's history. Included with the article are three photos of the site, including one of Killion with five students who are working the site.
