Oral Histories being scheduled

 Students in history 419 are reaching out to folks who work at St. Bonaventure University as part of an oral history project they are doing about our collective pandemic experience. If you get an email asking, please consider taking a little time for this project. https://sites.google.com/view/sbu-pandemic

Internship Opportunities

 We have a variety of internship opportunities if you want to work in the field of history. You can intern on campus, off campus and, sometimes, remotely. We've gotten a lot better at remote over the past 18 months. If you look elsewhere on this blog you can see a sample of the work done by students during past internships. The internships often involve research, content creation, public programming and other public history activities. If you are interested in a career in the culturals or in education these are good learning experiences. If interested, contact Phillip Payne at ppayne@sbu.edu

Oral History project on St. Bonaventure and Pandemic using TheirStory

 

In History 419: Digital History and Archival Practices students are doing an oral history project using TheirStory. TheirStory is an exciting company founded by Zack Ellis in Rochester, NY. TheirStory allows students to conduct interviews, create transcripts with tags, and present them on the Aviary Platform.
