Scope of Collection
During the summer of 2009, Students in Dr. Learotha Williams’ History 5770 course conducted oral history interviews about experience of war. Each student submitted a recording of the interview, transcript of the recording, signed release form, and essay about oral history and their experience conducting the interview(s). Most of the interviews were about Vietnam era experiences. Other interviewees discussed World War II and military careers. One recounted coming of age in the 1980s in Eritrea, during that country’s war with Ethiopia.
