Orgill and Black Preserve Idaho's History


Kelly Orgill (above) and Carissa Black have been entrusted with additional duties and asked to stay on as full time staff members at the Idaho State Historic Preservation Office, part of the Idaho State Historical Society. As far as grad school goes, Kelly Orgill’s MA work focuses on Idaho identity and environmental issues, and she is working with Dr. Lisa Brady. Carissa Black is not only working full time for the Historic Preservation Office, but is also an intern at the Public Archives and Research Library as part of her MAHR project where she is conducting oral histories and compiling research on Idaho’s conservation movement. Carissa will also be traveling (thanks to funding from the History Department) to Oregon and Washington this summer to attend archival training workshops.
