Taking as its premise the idea that the stories we tell function as crucial frameworks through which we understand the world and preserve memory, we interrogated how stories come into being, whose voices have the authority to tell stories, how stories are remembered and transmitted, and how stories are received by diverse audiences. 
  
  
  Our investigation of these topics were grounded in the discussion of a range of literary readings that explored the ethical significance of maintaining and preserving memory as a method of community creation and individual revelation. We then put these discussions into practice by exploring the Archives of Saint Mary's College and asking what stories could and should be told from these items. Roughly half of the course we spent planning and implementing this digital exhibit that explores how the values expressed and ways of being experienced by Saint Mary's students in the 1920s, the 1970s, and today.
