Leith challenged his class to research and write about Columbia's renowned outdoor music venue, Merriweather Post Pavilion. The class also teamed with HCC director of service learning, Brittany Budden, to collect and transcribe oral histories from community members about their experiences since the gates opened in 1967. The Columbia Archives was delighted to include the recorded interviews and written transcripts into their collection, as it contains very few oral histories. The students were prepared for this innovative learning experience with National Public Radio's StoryCorp website, Howard County Book Connection selection listening is an Act of love, guest lecturers Barbara Kellner, director of Columbia Archives and author of images of America: Columbia, Maryland, and Joe Mitchell, co-author of new City upon a Hill: A History of Columbia, Maryland, as well as a tour from long-time Merriweather general manager Jean Parker. 10 Pathways | Howard Community College Fall 2011
