Graduate assistant to speak about family Titanic story
Feb 10, 2013
Kelly Senkowski, graduate assistant in the Office of Graduate Studies, will be a featured presenter on Friday, Feb. 15 at the Grand Rapids Public Museum, giving two presentations about the story of her great-grandmother Jessie Trout’s experience on the Titanic and how she survived. She will also be a guest at the museum’s “Night to Remember” event on Feb. 21. Until now, Senkowski said there hasn’t been much interest in this story often before, and so she has only told it in a couple of her children’s classrooms throughout the years.
