Historic Murders of Forsyth County

University of North Georgia (UNG) professor Dr. Melissa Schindler will discuss the project "Narrative North Georgia" and her students will present on murders occurring in North Georgia. University students have collected information from the archives at UNG, the Forsyth County Historical Society, and online resources. Through this project, UNG is working to highlight local history as well as to strengthen the connection between students and the communities surrounding the university's five campuses.

Dr. Melissa E. Schindler’s teaching and research have been shaped by international experiences. She has been a Peace Corps volunteer in Mozambique, a Fulbright student fellow in Brazil, and an academic researcher in Sri Lanka and India. She is currently working on a book manuscript on how the work of African-American artists engages with Latin America.
