Rutgers University Oral History Archives of World War II
Hide Profile
On July 1, 1994, the Department of History at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, established the Rutgers Oral History Archives of World War II with an initial gift of $100,000 from the Rutgers College Class of 1942. Under the direction of Professor G. Kurt Piehler (1994-1999) and Sandra Stewart Holyoak (1999-present), this project has recorded the personal experiences of over 500 men and women, primarily Rutgers University alumni, who served on the home front and overseas. In 2000, the project expanded its scope to include those who bore witness to the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the Cold War. While recording oral histories remains the Archives primary goal, the administrators have also aimed to gather documentary materials from their subjects for deposit in Special Collections and University Archives at Alexander Library.
