Join Dean Hoon as he speaks with James "Jim" Thweatt, a proud 1991 graduate of Austin Peay with dual degrees in History and English. Now serving as an archivist in the History of Medicine Collection at Vanderbilt University, Jim reflects on his upbringing in Clarksville, where gardening and a passion for history were instilled by his parents—his father, a historian and archivist, also taught in APSU’s History Department. He shares how Austin Peay’s strong reputation in History and English shaped his academic journey and prepared him for a career dedicated to preserving historical narratives.
