Esta p\u00e1gina documenta las investigaciones de una clase, “Estudios en la Historia del Medio-Oeste (HST 450),” dirigido por Lic. Andrew Offenburger de Miami University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los estudiantes de esta clase se van a embarcar en una investigaci\u00f3n grupal y colaborativa sobre la historia de Storm Lake, Iowa, un pueblo de 12,000 habitantes ubicado en el noroeste de ese estado, un lugar influenciado por la industria agr\u00edcola, la inmigraci\u00f3n, y el sue\u00f1o americano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vamos a analizar muchas fuentes hist\u00f3ricas, incluyendo peri\u00f3dicos como el Storm Lake Times<\/em> y el Storm Lake Pilot-Tribune<\/em>, as\u00ed como tambi\u00e9n libros y entrevistas de historia oral. Por este motivo estamos ansiosos de poder trabajar con los residentes de Storm Lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esta clase recibe apoyo de la Facultad de Historia y “Humanities Works 3.0<\/a>,” una colaboraci\u00f3n entre el Centro de Carreras y \u00c9xitos, el Centro de Humanidades, y el Colegio de Artes y Ciencias de Miami University.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This website documents the ongoing work of a class, “Researching Midwestern History (HST 450),” led by Dr. Andrew Offenburger at Miami University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students in this class will embark upon a group research project investigating the history of Storm Lake, Iowa, a town of nearly 12,000 residents in northwest Iowa heavily influenced by industrial agriculture, immigration, and the American dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be analyzing many historical sources, including archives from the Storm Lake Times<\/em> and the Storm Lake Pilot-Tribune<\/em>, published books, and oral history interviews. With this in mind, we are eager to work with any and all Storm Lake residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This class is supported by the Department of History and “Humanities Works 3.0<\/a>,” a collaboration between the Center for Career Exploration & Success, the Humanities Center, and the College of Arts & Science at Miami University.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
