2026 Spring Colloquium: On Record: Telling the Stories in Our Voices (In-person)

Wednesday, March 3, 2026, 3:00–4:30 PM (HST) @ Moore Hall 319

Join us for the Spring 2026 Colloquium on On Record: Telling the Stories in Our Voices.

This colloquium draws on archival materials, exhibitions, and research related to the 1975 Operation Babylift evacuation. Drawing from the speaker’s work developing Operation Babylift Collection, this talk explores how incomplete, rushed or sealed documentation becomes the foundation for identity, belonging, and safety decades later. Using a focused case-study approach, this session highlights how personal stories, institutional documentation, and ethical decision-making shape the historical record.

• Wednesday, March 3, 2026 — 3:00–4:30 PM (HST)
• Venue: Moore Hall 319

Speakers:

• Devaki Murch – StoryScope Studio, Operation Babylift Collection.
