The Shorthorn Oral History Project

The Shorthorn is 100 years old. Introspection and navel gazing is required from all who crossed the thresholds of the various newsroom locations. YOU have a story to tell. We have the physical and cyber versions of the newspaper archived. We need to archive you. We need your backstory in all its glory and flop sweat-inducing detail. How did you survive that first . . .? Were you recruited by Dorothy or John or a student and do you still blame/credit them? Was there one defining moment when you knew these people were or were not your people? How did working at the paper impact your scholastic, social, professional lives? How much of your college life revolved around The Shorthorn and your friends and co-workers? Did the paper prepare you for the "real world?" Download the app. Write down some things. Talk amongst yourselves. We'll be waiting.
