COVID-19 Special Collection: Documenting the MSU Experience

Permanent URI for this communityhttps://scholarworks.montana.edu/handle/1/16009

The COVID-19 pandemic universally upended daily life beginning in March 2020 in both expected and unexpected ways. Members of the Montana State University (MSU) community reacted and adapted as needed in our personal, professional, and scholastic lives. MSU Library’s Archives and Special Collections documented this new reality by soliciting written reflections and other records of life during the 2020 pandemic from MSU students, staff, and faculty. The materials in this collection represent the range of the MSU community’s response to the pandemic, from the very personal to the administrative. The bulk of the collection consists of student responses to COVID-19 related assignments in courses across disciplines beginning in Spring 2020. Together these records constitute an archive of lived experiences during this time.

    Assignment: We are living in a surreal time for most of us who have never experienced this sort of disruption to our daily lives. It is something that many in the past have documented as they lived through it. Since this is a writing course, I would like to encourage you to document your thoughts and feelings as you work your way through the challenges in your life and how this pandemic has disrupted what you do and what you know. It’s certainly given us a time for reflection of what we consider to be most important in our lives, and even what we take for granted.
