Schedule Your Interview

Every emeritus or emerita faculty member, and everyone else who has made a significant contribution to Porterville College, has a story worth preserving. If you'd like to be part of the PCEA Video Records Project, here's how to get started.

Who Can Be Interviewed?

The PCEA Video Records Project is open to PC emeriti/ae faculty and staff, as well as anyone else who has made a significant contribution to the development of the college. Interviews are recorded as a conversation between you and a friend or colleague of your choosing — not a formal Q&A — so it feels natural rather than like an interrogation. More than 525 interviews have been recorded so far, and new emeriti/ae are always encouraged to arrange one.

Looking for the Alumni Story Project Instead?

If you're a PC alumnus or alumna and want to share your own PC memory rather than sit for a recorded on-camera interview, that's a separate effort called PC Stories – Oral History Project. Visit the Centennial Celebration home page to learn how that process works.
