For an Academic Community Engagement (ACE) project, History and Organization of Higher Education students contributed to a time capsule documenting the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic in U.S./global higher education. The class donated the time capsule to the SHSU Newton Gresham Library and their 2020 Community Archives. It was also registered with the International Time Capsule Society. The capsule will be opened in 2040 by future students in the Higher Education Administration program who will study the contents and learn more about what it was like to live and work through the pandemic.
