The University of St. Michael’s College Archives are gathering the personal stories of the St. Michael’s College community, including our students, faculty, staff, and alumni, as we all experience lockdowns and quarantines. The Archives are already actively archiving the administrative response of the University during the COVID-19 pandemic, including the website and official emails.
As we have moved to remote teaching and learning, or working from home, or working in essential services, our day-to-day lives and routines have changed. We have created a short survey to gather some information from our community about these changes and our experiences. There are two goals for this survey: first, to connect with our wider community and learn from each other, and, second, to document our experiences for future generations.
We would also like to encourage you to contribute photographs, diary or journal entries, social media posts – anything that can reflect what life is like for you right now.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with our archivist at usmc.archives@utoronto.ca.
