Oral History Project
Chicago State Foundation’s Office of Alumni Affairs has partnered with Publishing
Concepts (also known as PCI) to produce an Oral History Publication for Chicago State
University alumni. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at
Chicago Teachers College and Chicago State University, and how the school helped to
shape your life since then.
Last summer, a postcard that looks similar to this image was sent to as many alumni
as possible over, followed by emails and phone calls. Over 4,000 CTC and CSU alumni
have participated in this project. Your story and images are now being compiled into
a coffee table book scheduled for completion this July.
The interview portion of this project has ended, but your option to purchase your
advance copy of the coffee table book remains only until the book goes to print. Only
advance purchases of the book will be produced and there will be no opportunity to
buy this book at a later date. Please call 1-800-982-1590 to purchase your book today.
All swag orders should have been mailed out in February, and all books will be mailed
out in July.
If you have any problem, please get in touch with the Chicago State Office of Alumni
Affairs at alumni@vbl-design.com. To be sure you don’t miss any announcements about this project, be sure we have
your most updated email address here.
