Central Michigan University. History Department Oral history projects, 1973-1993
3.5 cubic feet (in 7 boxes)
The collection consists of student oral history projects for History 110 (American Experience) and 221 (Growing up in America) at CMU. The term papers are sometimes the only source of history for a Michigan person or experience. The writing style and depth of research varies with each paper. The collection is organized alphabetically by the name of the interviewee.
In the Box and Folder Listing, for each paper, the first name is that of the author, while the second is that of the person interviewed. The title of the paper and term and year of the course follow. Most of the papers document life in Michigan or of a Michigander. Those papers about life in other states or countries, usually note that in the title of the paper. If not, the name of the state or country has been added in parenthesis.
