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.

    (no) NCUR Reflection EDSP 307
    (Montana State University, 2020-05) Bartz, Jody Marie; Browning, Sydney; Lee, Morgan
    We are most certainly in an unprecedented space and time. COVID-19 has upended all that we knew as “normal” and has forced us into ‘distancing’ ourselves—which, if I may be honest, is so challenging for many, including myself Given our current climate and academic situation. The intent of an NCUR Reflection was to connect (and reflect) your EDSP experience(s) to undergraduate research shared at the conference. I’d like you to reflect on three things: (1) How has COVID-19 impacted you as a student? Share as much or as little as you’d like. This is your reflection and I want to be sensitive to everyone’s experiences; (2) As a future educator (or professional), I’d like you to think through what you’d do for your students/families/clients if the COVID-19 pandemic ‘hit’ post-graduation—what measures would you put in place to connect and support? And finally, (3) how can I support you for the rest of the semester? What things do I need to make sure to have in place to ease this time of uncertainty?
