Dear Colleagues,
Our culture has not distinguished itself in preserving records. Even the land records are not comprehensive outside the city. Mausica Teachers' College will totally disappear from the collective memory of Trinidad and Tobago once the alumni passes away. We need to do something to preserve that legacy. We should collect all the pictures of alumni that we could, older and newer versions of ourselves with dates, and also some oral histories of our backgrounds and our experiences at Mausica. It would require organising and cataloguing, but first we need to collect them. From day one to day end. Additionally, we need to attach the schools we were posted to, and some memorable contributions we made to the school and the educational process. We could also include some mention of what we have achieved since then, as we see fit. I forsee this being donated to the School of Education at UWI to eventually be a historical collection for research and writing. This has to be accompanied by a monument on the campus and maybe a sign.
