1 folder (0.1 linear feet)
In 1992, former Salisbury University student Kristen Monks collected folk material. For this project, she interviewed her grandfather, who was an educator, to ask him about his vocation. Her grandfather was the first first-generation college student in their lineage. During his career, he contributed greatly to the field of education by introducing new methods of teaching. He also wrote stories, created puzzles and designed games for his grandchildren as a mean of communicating and educating them. Throughout her paper, Kristen emphasizes how her grandfather instilled the value of education to their family. Tape enclosed.
