A Bangor school’s 1980s time capsule is nowhere to be found – Kendra Bird (MS QCS – 2017)
On April 30, 2024, the Bangor Daily News posted a story about the unsuccessful search for 38-year-old time capsule buried near the James F. Doughty Middle School in Bangor, Maine. Kendra Bird, who received her MS in Quaternary and Climate Studies in 2017, was a student at Doughty when the capsule buried and participated in the search this month. Bird brought her experience as an archaeologist and GIS expert to the quest, but, as she is quoted in the article, “I’m still befuddled that we’re off by this much.” The capsule remains buried somewhere near the school.
