The Brooklyn College Listening Project, started in 2015, is an oral history project that captures stories about experiences in Brooklyn. One oral history recording from 2015, which is available online via JSTOR, includes details about the narrator’s experience as a Muslim in the aftermath of 9/11.

Brooklyn College Yearbook Collection

In 2003, students documented the campus’s reflections commemorating the anniversary of 9/11 in that year’s edition of the Broeklundian yearbook (pp. 102-103). This is digitized and available online via JSTOR.

Brooklyn College also has unprocessed materials that are related to students’ experiences and reflections about 9/11, including materials from an English class that met during Fall 2001, and a publication.
