Professors Ryan Calabretta-Sajder, Linda Jones and Kathleen Condray are seeking feedback for their digital humanities project, "Mapping Unheard Immigrant Voices."

The project is exploring new ways for the general public to interact with Arkansas European immigrant history (such as walking tours, explorations of historic music and recipes, and virtual reality experiences), and they would like to gauge where the most interest lies in order to prioritize programs.

The survey should take about five minutes; it asks for an e-mail to encourage only one response per person, but participants can indicate whether they want email stored to receive project updates in the future.

Please consider taking the survey, and participants are welcome to pass the link on to anyone interested.

"Mapping Unheard Immigrant Voices" is generously supported by:

  • DEI Office in the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences
  • Linda Jones from the Department of World Languages, Literatures and Cultures at the U of A
