Scope and Contents

Oral history interview with Piper Baack conducted by Claytee D. White and Stefani Evans on June 17, 2024 for the UNLV Remembers: an Oral History of the 6 December 2023 Shootings project. In this interview, Baack shares her recollections from December 6, 2023. Baack, a UNLV senior at the time, was working on the fourth-floor Communications office at Greenspun Hall when the first alert arrived. She remembers trying to make the space look unoccupied, and hiding with about ten people in the office until the police evacuated them, sending them across Maryland Parkway to the Cafe Rio parking lot. Piper eventually met up with her sister and sister's boyfriend, and they went home together. In this interview, Piper discusses her longstanding anxiety over time and public transport, and how her dependency on the latter aggravates the former. She discusses accessing UNLV's CAPS (Student Counseling and Psychological Services) and seeing an outside therapist, and she talks about feeling safe on campus and at her current job at the Nevada State Museum. Digital audio available.
