The word "archives" might conjure up visions of
black and white photographs and musty diaries, but as anyone who had heard a
favorite song from high school on the "oldies" station knows, some of
the past wasn't so long ago. How can we research the recent past? OSU Archivist
Tiah Edmunson-Morton will be here to talk about h...ow artifacts make their way

aid" can do for you.
