      ab: The article presents a discussion among several professors in the history department at the University at Albany, the State University of New York who were involved in a curriculum overhaul project that failed to obtain the objectives of attracting new students and stemming the decline in those choosing to major in the humanities. The University's department embraced the premise put forth by the American Historical Association's Tuning the History Discipline project that sought to attract majors, resources and prestige through a more creative, research-based curriculum. The scholars discuss the reasons why the project failed, and how they have reevaluated their assumptions, expectations and options going forward.
