Episode One: In the spring of 2017, students Emily Keating, Taylor Little, Taylor Mason, Tyler Newcomer and Andrea Readshaw in HIS 433 (Oral History) at Shippensburg University conducted an oral history of faculty members who had participated in the first ever strike in the history of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education. The three day strike had taken place the previous fall. Students interviewed union officers as well as other faculty who walked the picket line and organized for the faculty union, the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculty (APSCUF). They produced this podcast from their work. There will be more coming from HIS 433 in May of 2019!
