ORAL HISTORY PROJECT
The Alumni Engagement Office at Maria College is thrilled to extend an invitation to all alumni. We invite you to share your unique connection and experiences with Maria College!
Our oral history project offers alumni the platform to narrate their Maria College in their own words. These personal stories will be compiled into a collection that celebrates our alma mater and its enduring legacy.
This initiative is made possible through a partnership between the Alumni Engagement Office and Publishing Concepts (PCI). In addition to gathering stories, PCI will assist the Alumni Engagement Office in updating alumni biographical information. This ensures we maintain accurate records to stay connected with Maria College alums across the nation and beyond.

I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and said they were working with Maria College. Is this a legitimate project?
Maria College has partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication for Maria College Alumni.
PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years.
This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at Maria College and how the school helped to shape your life since then. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.
