The national experience has been that the minority community has been underserved in the vaccine rollout. It’s due in part to the familiar impediments to equal treatment place of residence, income and other factors.

DePaul students will now have the opportunity to produce primary documents for the university archives and be an integral part of the first draft of history.
In partnership with HumanitiesX Collaborative, DePaul Special Collections and Archives has initiated a new course entitled DePaul Documentary Corps. Through this course, students can gain internship experience as well as satisfy their experiential learning credit, since it has an ISP 392 designation. The first installment of this course has already begun for this winter quarter, but students will be able to sign up for next quarter as soon as registration opens.
