  • By Hannah Gunnell Thesis Advisor Dr. Michae
    The Ball State University Honors College Oral History Project An Honor Thesis (499) by Hannah Gunnell Thesis Advisor Dr. Michael Doyle Ball State University Muncie, Indiana April 29, 2019 Expected Date of Graduation May 2020 Abstract The Ball State University Honors College is a liberal arts institution in a public university. As the first Honors Program in the state of Indiana, the Honors College is the birthplace of creativity, innovation and profound thought. Despite the significance of the Honors College, there is no current written history of the Ball State University Honors College on its sixtieth anniversary. This project aims to contribute to the history of the Ball State University Honors College by using long-form, oral history interviews to create primary sources of the Honors College. We used oral history interviews as the medium to do this because the oral history interview better showcases the subject’s emotions, putting the humanity back in history. My portion of the project included the interview of three faculty members, Dr. Joseph Trimmer, Dr. John Emert, and Dr. Donald Gilman, which will be added to the other thirty-one administrators, staff, faculty and alumni. All the interviews will be permanently archived from the Ball State University Libraries Digital Media Repository, where the videos will be streamable and the transcripts accessible. By interviewing these faculty, I discovered how the Honors College offered opportunities that impacted the university as a whole. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Michael Doyle for personally inviting me to partake in this project. His recognition of my potential allowed me to advance my research and interviewing abilities, which not only aided in this project, but also aided me in my journalism career.
