A three-year project to collect oral histories from Jersey City residents and incorporate them into history and composition courses.

The Hudson Oral History Project employs the practices and tools of the humanities in the field of oral history in order to engage our students and the surrounding community by capturing the stories as the city around us transforms radically, and to embed oral history into relevant courses and curricula.
