Visiting Assistant Professor of Classics Michael Goyette, Ph.D., tasked students in his New Diseases in History and Literature class with bringing in objects that summarized their unique pandemic experiences.
From a homemade cement weight to a pack of Wite-Out® tape, students submitted items to what is now Eckerd College’s Covid Time Capsule.
With $2,000 from Florida Humanities’ Community Project Grants, Professor Goyette is now turning to the St. Petersburg community for input—in hopes of documenting memories and reflecting on the pandemic’s impact on us all.
