Rose’s Story – click to listen.

Welcome to the first installment of Friday Storytime! I will be collecting student stories in audio form every week. They can be about anything, from family to french fries, as long as it’s personal and meaningful to you. Everyone has a story to share. Taking the time to listen is, as NPR’s Storycorps remind us, an act of love.

Above is Rose Wunrow’s story of her parents’ chance meeting, unorthodox courtship, and eventual eccentric marriage ceremony.

If you have a 4 to 5 minute-long story you would like to share, please email aholtzm1@swarthmore.edu to set up a recording time. This month’s theme is Serendipity.
