Gene Bauer Oral History

In Spring 2016, four Carleton students -- Sydney Botz, Olwenn Fruchart, Kaitlyn Hamers, and Zoe Harris-- conducted an oral history project by interviewing longtime birdwatcher Gene Bauer and his wife Susan Bauer. This oral history project aimed to present a snapshot of what it means to be a birdwatcher, and what birdwatching can tell us about Prairie Creek Wildlife Management Area (WMA).
