Oral History Projects at UW-Madison

  • 1.  Oral History Projects at UW-Madison

    Posted Nov 23, 2020 04:03 PM
    Dear colleagues,

    The Oral History Program (OHP) at the UW-Madison Archives recently concluded two oral history projects that we believe others might be interested to learn about! One helped document the history of 21 nurses trained between the late 1940s through the early 1980s at the Madison General Hospital when it was located on the UW-Madison campus. The other offered an overview of the recent restructuring of the UW System through the stories of 25 people directly impacted by it. The OHP crafted a webpage for each project and worked with the UW Libraries to create a press release about each project. Here are the links to the Nurses webpage and news release and to the Restructuring Project's webpage and news release. For more information about these projects or about the OHP, contact Troy Reeves.

    Best,
    Katie
