We are looking for current or former LaGuardia students to participate in interviews for the Asian American COVID-19 Oral History Project. This oral history collection aims to document the experience of LaGuardia Community College students, especially those of the Asian descent, during the COVID-19 pandemic. A participant who has completed an interview for this project will receive a $25 Visa gift card. The interviews will join the images, essays, and more that are part of the COVID-19 Story Project in the Institutional Archives.
How can a student participate in this project?
- Visit the Asian American Oral History Project website (https://asianheritage.commons.gc.cuny.edu) and see examples of our oral history videos.
- If you are interested in participating in this oral history project, make an appointment for your interview at https://bit.ly/OralHist2021. The interview usually takes between 20-30 min.
- You will be asked to sign on the video release form and the research consent form before the interview (both forms are available on the appointment form above).
- Contact Thomas Cleary at tcleary@lagcc.cuny.edu or Tomonori Nagano at tnagano@lagcc.cuny.edu for questions.
