ABOUT THE UP DEPARTMENT OF LINGUISTICS ORAL HISTORY PROJECT (LINGG OHP)
The UP Linguistics Oral History Project features anecdotes, narratives, and institutional chismis gathered from members and friends of the UP Lingg Community. By gathering these individual stories, we hope to piece together the collective memory and larger history of the Department and identify the role that it has played in the lives of different people who have been or are currently affiliated with the Department, as well as the role that it has played in the development and promotion of linguistics and language study in the Philippines from 1922 to the present.
