I have spent the better part of my afternoons in Special Collections. Most of these trips to Special Collections were spent looking at the College Catalogue, G-Book, and Barbara Holley’s Scrapbook Collection. This week I decided to take a look at the Oral Histories in Special Collections. I was surprised to read and learn new things about college social life and culture that I would have not otherwise known. Facts, numbers, pictures, and books can only give you a wide range of information, but Oral Histories find the narrative and the voice of the people. I hope I will be able to use the voices I found reading the oral histories in my digital project to add another layer of depth to the narrative of women.

And one day you may be conducting your own oral histories!
