Oral History Project
The 91传媒 Alumni Office is excited to partner with PCI in creating an Oral History Project (OHP). Through the OHP, we will be collecting "Titan Tales" from alumni. This is a voluntary project which allows alumni to share their most memorable moments while attending 91传媒.
Project Timeline
Starting in March 2024, we will teaming up with our partner, Publishing Concepts, Inc. (PCI) to collect stories from 91传媒 alumni and preserve them in a book that celebrates the impact 91传媒 has had on your lives and who you are today. The project will be completed and publications mailed in the Fall of 2024.
Frequently Asked Questions by Alumni
I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and a story about 91传媒. Tell me more about the project.
We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for 91传媒. PCI is a family owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at 91传媒 and how the school helped to shape your life since then. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.
Does 91传媒 benefit from this at all?
Yes, in a few different ways:
- Updated Information – allows us to effectively communicate with and engage alumni
- Legacy – sharing and collecting stories preserves the history of our school
