Working in collaboration with a team from the Emily Dickinson House and Museum and Amherst College, students in Professor Sam Redman's Theory & Method of Oral History course successfully recorded 5 new oral history interviews on the history of Emily Dickinson's home and it's transition into a museum. The interviews, resulting in over 100 transcribed pages of interview text, will create a new body of materials for future generations of students, scholars, and museum staff to learn from the institution's history. The interviews are currently being processed with the goal of making them freely available to the public in 2017.
