Meeting and Greeting All Around
Thursday, January 28th, our first day, we met with Mr.
Worley’s high school video production class. We shared a full (and fun) “meet
and greet” orientation with Radford University Sociology Department undergraduates
and Floyd County High School students participating in the Floyd Story Center
2016 Roots with
Wings Oral History Project.

This year’s theme focuses on neighborhood life and
what it’s meant to be part of a community. Our team of seven RU students and
sixteen high school students—a montage of freshmen to seniors—are preparing to
investigate the traditions and gatherings of the region and the impact and
influence that neighbors had upon one another. We hope to capture these historical
treasures with our technology know-how and interview skills, which we will
refine and develop through these next several weeks of training and practicing.
