Now that it's Monday and I've collected my thoughts from the conference, a HUGE thank-you again to @MNSUMankato and specifically @MNSUHistory for hosting the William E. Lass Minnesota History Symposium. The first of many, I hope. Some additional thoughts:

We had a great symposium yesterday. A great way to honor the legacy of Professor Emeritus William E. Lass. Will repost photos and posts from the event.

Prof Rachael Hanel is an alum of our department. You can find her research on Camilla Hall in the book Not the Camilla We Knew: One Woman’s Path from Small-town America to the Symbionese Liberation Army published by @UMinnPress

Cory Haala@Cory_Haala

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus Then, @MNSUMankato creative writing Prof Rachael Hanel (@rachael18) shared a look into the life of Camilla Hall, the lesser-known two #Minnesota women who joined the Symbionese Liberation Army. (I took a pic and somehow deleted it - I'm sorry, Rachael!) #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus @MNSUMankato @rachael18 @KunkelJoseph @CSBSJUHistory Atkins: "If there is a central reason why I do history, it's because I want to change people's lives." #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus @MNSUMankato @rachael18 @KunkelJoseph @CSBSJUHistory Relating research on the Campbell family from her work Creating Minnesota, Atkins documents the "messiness" of Minnesota history and Identity: racial and familial complexity, plus the need to give "literal voice" to the past through new media. #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus @MNSUMankato @rachael18 @KunkelJoseph @CSBSJUHistory Tracing historiographical debates, Atkins identifies two more vital factors that should animate us in #Minnesota History: 1. community, 2. storytelling: "we give meaning to the pay by giving meaning to those facts," and 3. reflection. #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus @MNSUMankato @rachael18 @KunkelJoseph And now #Minnesota history legend Annette Atkins (emerita @CSBSJUHistory), with our keynote: "I'm an Historian: What's My Job?" Reflecting on time, place, and "objectivity" in history, she's challenging us to ask new questions of our research on the state. #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal @gustavus @MNSUMankato @rachael18 Last panel: Jeff Kolnick of SW MN St with 2004 CD1 candidate Leigh Pomeroy and former MNSU poli sci prof Joseph Kunkel (@KunkelJoseph) on Tim Walz and politics of democratic authenticity. Admittedly, also fun Remembering Some Guys from #Minnesota political history. #MNHistory24

Thank you to @Cory_Haala for presenting your research "Chasing Fast-Paced Paul: Paul Wellstone from Northfield to the Iron Range and Everywhere in Between" at the inaugural William E. Lass Minnesota History Symposium at @MNSUMankato

Cory Haala@Cory_Haala

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal I was honored to share a panel with the next two: Ruby O'Hagan, @gustavus History award-winning BA, presented on legacies, context, memory at Native boarding schools in #Minnesota. Thoughtful, timely scholarship on Benedictine schools and Ojibwe endurance. #MNHistory24

@MNSUHistory @prspyhal Sleepy Eye shoutouts galore from @MNSUHistory grad student Carly DeLeu in an interesting history of #Minnesota in #WWI, when a German pastor named Charles Lehnert expressed hope that Woodrow Wilson would be shot before the end of the war. #MNHistory24
