Description: During the fall of 1982, the COA Oral History Workshop collected and prepared oral history interviews documenting COA's founding and early years. For her senior project, Bethany Arownow '83 edited these interviews into a booklet entitled "Such a Frail Bark". The book is fascinating and contains photographs of Kaelber Hall and people instrumental in COA's birth and life.
