UNO People, Share Your Stories!

As the University of New Orleans undergoes a major institutional transition, this project is collecting the stories, memories, and lived experiences that have shaped the university across generations.
This student-led project is collecting memories, archival documents, and oral histories during a time when the University of New Orleans undergoes significant institutional change.

By bringing community perspectives into conversation with archival materials and public narratives, the project invites reflection on how histories are constructed, how meaning changes when memory is shared, and how different voices help shape collective understanding of who the university has been and who it is becoming.

A student-led public history project documenting the memories community members hold of the University of New Orleans as it transitions into LSU New Orleans.
