Conditions Governing Access
The collection is open for research. Archival materials may contain sensitive or confidential information that is protected under federal or state “right to privacy” laws. Researchers are advised that the disclosure of certain information pertaining to identifiable living individuals without the consent of those individuals may have legal cause for action if facts concerning an individual’s private life are published that would be deemed highly offensive to a reasonable person. Privately donated materials may carry restrictions imposed by deed as a condition of donation and require the permission of the donor or donor’s agent. The KSU archives does not itself waive such restrictions, nor will it act as an advocate for any researcher seeking such waivers. KSU archives staff have taken care to identify and, in some cases, remove sensitive information found within its archival collections when undertaking archival processing work. However, privacy protected information may be revealed during use of the archival collections, particularly in those collections that are unprocessed or have been minimally processed. Researchers agree to make no notes or other recordation of privacy protected information if found within the archival collections, and further agree not to publish, publicize, or disclose such information to any other party for any purpose if found within the archival collections. Researchers agree to indemnify and hold harmless Kennesaw State University and its officers, employees, and agents from and against all suits, claims, actions, and expenses arising out of use of archival collections held by the Kennesaw State University Archives.

Historical Information
The following information is captured from the Vimeo description of this exhibit:
“Emerging from Within is a historical look into the untold stories and life histories of several of KSU's diversity advocates. The project aims to generate greater understanding of diversity and inclusion at KSU and to archive the efforts of faculty and staff over time. Some of the featured individuals have retired from the University, others continue to play a central role in making KSU a premier diverse institution. A total of 14 individuals participated in the project. Each person has a unique history and has overcome obstacles to be part of a growing University in an ever-changing society. Their contributions range from speaking out against acts of exclusion and injustice, supporting others through both small and large deeds, establishing programs to meet the needs of KSU's diverse body, and building bridges between KSU and surrounding marginalized communities. With humility and grace, these individuals have shared the stories, experiences, and teachings that contributed to their identity and advocacy.”
These videos were created for this online exhibit, Emerging from Within, that was originally hosted on the Diversity and Inclusion Website, diversity.kennesaw.edu. Following an update to the website CMS software older portions of the website were removed and in this case the collection was removed.
