This collection contains materials from the project undertaken in order to document the early history of Harpur College. The project took place between 1969-1985 and it was carried out in multiple iterations. The overall project went by two different titles over time: the Harpur College Oral History Project and the Harpur College History Project. This collection contains early planning files, files of the project directors (William Langlois, Stephen McIntire, and Laura House), correspondence, memoranda of the Advisory Committee on the History of Harpur College Project, and other administrative files. The recordings and textual documents which were a result of the project are also in this collection: 39 transcripts of oral histories, audio files of approximately 67 interviews, and 5 manuscripts.
