About the Authors

Hello, I am Savannah Minnick. I am a History major with an emphasis in Historic Preservation at Shepherd University. This is my senior year here at Shepherd. I love to uncover secrets from the past through artifacts left behind. This course has been an opportunity to pursue that interest at new depths. I am excited about all of the connections Meaghan and I will establish through our project. It will be interesting to learn more about the experiences of previous Shepherd University students and compare it to today’s campus life.

Hi, I’m Meaghan Papeika. I am a senior at Shepherd University, with a dual major in History and English. I am president of the Pi Epsilon chapter of Phi Alpha Theta History Honors Society and a member of Sigma Tau Delta English Honors Society. I’m excited to share some of the history of my own campus and its students while Savannah and I show off our new skills as digital humanists!
