Celebrating the
South Carolina Veterans Oral History Project
As the final project for the oral history undergraduate course, students were asked to use the oral histories they recorded to create a web exhibit, podcast, poster, or other creative presentation. The final projects were presented to the veteran interviewees and members of the public during a reception in Hollings Library at the University of South Carolina on December 6, 2018. The gallery below highlights the relationships built between students and veterans during the South Carolina Veterans Oral History Project.
