History Students Honor James Farmer’s Legacy

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Over the semester students from Dr. McClurken’s Digital History Seminar have been working hard to create websites researching various topics to provide people with useful information all in one space.

One group created a site about James Farmer and his legacy. Within the site there is a timeline of his life, quotes, videos and more. It is clear from the site that these students put a lot of work into honoring the great James Farmer.

Take a look at the mashup video they created honoring Farmer’s life.

It has even been reported that Dr.McClurken became a bit choked up when viewing it.
