Oral History Project Interviews
SIEMENS HALL OCCUPATION - SPRING 2024
History 482 is looking for participants (18 years or older) for an oral history project about the student protests and occupation on campus in April, 2024. The goal is to document and archive the various experiences of people involved in or affected by the events.
Interviews with each participant will last up to one hour, with follow-ups scheduled as needed.
Have your voice heard! Send an email with the subject line “interview” to whathappenedhere@humboldt.edu or call 707-826-4491.
Those who prefer to not be identified can also participate. To schedule an anonymous interview, go to the 2nd floor of the Library every Wednesday, 1–3 p.m. and speak with the staff member who will be sitting at a table with a sign that says “What Happened Here.” You will be scheduled anonymously for an interview.
