Hannah Werner oral history interview, 2024 August 30

Level of Description

File

Scope and Contents

Oral history interview with Hannah Werner conducted by Claytee D. White and Stefani Evans on August 30, 2024 for the UNLV Remembers: an Oral History of the 6 December 2023 Shootings project. In this interview, Werner, a junior in UNLV's Film School, recalls leaving her dorm and heading to class in Flora Dungan Humanities building at 11:30am. Shortly after class began, she and her classmates started receiving the University Police Department (UPD) active shooter texts. The class decided to remain in place, stacking desks against the door and turning off the lights. Hebbler suggested the students call their families. Werner was talking to her father when she heard gunshots. When the building was being evacuated, they heard banging on the door and loud voices. Realizing it was the police, Werner put on her backpack backwards, and when they opened the door were faced with guns. The class was evacuated about 3:00pm around the building and out the stairs facing Maryland Parkway. Werner started filming as they were being evacuated, sent her film to the networks, and was later interviewed by CBS News. Her dad, a Spanish teacher, was waiting for her near some nearby apartments, and they took a classmate home on their way home that night. Her class met in video calls every night over the next few weeks; Werner is still close with all her classmates. Werner, a substitute teacher, says the event has made substituting harder, is more aware of her surroundings and emergency exits, and looks to Hebbler as a role model for the way he remained calm and kept his students calm. Digital audio and transcript available.
