APBP Archives Project Kicks Off

Today marks the beginning a multi-year effort by the Appalachian Prison Book Project to digitize the thousands of letters they've received over the years. Volunteers have been working hard all day to sort letters from men and women imprisoned in six states in the Appalachia region. Organizers estimate they've received over 20,000 letters!

If you'd like to get involved, APBP offers volunteer training every Saturday between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Learn more at https://aprisonbookproject.wordpress.com/about

Look at our snazzy new space!


Thanks to Cindy Ulrich, our resident interior designer, we now have a lovely new waiting area for students visiting our advising office. Isn't it sweet? And even if you don't have an advising appointment with Nancy Caronia or Doug Phillips, our pretty famous advisors, but just need a little sit-down, you could probably hang out there until someone notices and scoots you along!
