Biographical / Historical

At the 40th anniversay of the Oblate Program, St. Scholastica Monastery in Chicago, Illinois partnered with DePaul University to conduct oral histories of Oblates and establish a timeline of the program. The students also created posters with the timeline, photographs, and excerpts from interviews which were displayed at the Testimonial Dinner in June 2017. Amy Tyson of the DePaul University history program guided her students in the collecting and transcribing of oral histories that year and in subsequent years.
