Exploring Hidden Histories In this research and narrative-centered studio, students are diving into histories often overlooked or erased. Student projects range from looking at the indigenous history of lacrosse and how it was used as a tool of appropriation in Canada’s residential schools to researching female codebreakers during World War II. The final result will be 11 stories that explore the nuanced nature of historical moments and lives.
