| Description: |
Sixty oral histories were collected between 1975 and 1978 as part of the Germans from Russia in Colorado Study Project. Interviews were conducted by project staff, most notably Dr. Ken Rock and Timothy Kloberdanz, and by students in a class on oral history given through the Department of History. Subjects covered included life in the German communities in Russia, the immigration experience, work and social life in the United States, and interaction between the Russian-German communities and the wider society in both Russia and the United States. The interviews followed a standard set of questions, also presented on this web site as part of the project's papers. |
