Scope and Contents

The bulk of the University Archives Oral History Collection consists of transcripts and recordings of oral history interviews conducted as a part of various projects at the College of William and Mary with administrators, faculty, students, and alumni.

The specific projects include the College's oral history program from the 1970s, an oral history program sponsored by the University Archives beginning in the 2000s, "Stony the Road We Trod," and the Stephens Project.  The collection also contains recordings that were done as part of Colonial Williamsburg's Oral History Project in 1930.

Whenever possible, interview transcripts, audio, and/or video are available online. See item records and the links to digital content (most often in the W&M Digital Archive at ) for details. Some digital files are restricted to reading room acess only and require at least 72 hours advanced notice for access.

A card catalog located in the SCRC indexes the interviews from the 1970s available in this collection. The card catalog was maintained and added to through January 2007.

Arrangement of Materials:

This collection is arranged in five series: Series 1: College Oral History Program; Series 2: Stoney the Road We Trod; Series 3: University Archives Oral History Project; Series 4: Stephens Project; Series 5: Colonial Williamsburg Oral History Project.

We discussed Helis' academic and social background as a college student in her home country of Estonia and later in the American Studies graduate program at the University of Wyoming. As we talked about LGBT tolerance and queer social life in Tartu, Laramie, and Williamsburg, Helis elaborated upon some broader ideas about identity politics and the meaning of the word "queer."

    Scope and Contents Interview with Chris Beacham on a quiet day in Swem Library less than a week after commencement, in which Chris participated as a member of the 2013 graduating class. Chris and I discussed his many, largely positive experiences as a genderqueer member of William and Mary's LGBTQ community. Chris explained the beginnings of his queer identity in high school and his further personal and intellectual growth at W&M as a student, editor of Lips: Expressions of Female Sexuality, and member of the queer social community on campus. Chris' responses to questions were thoughtful and candid, and should be of great interest to those looking to know more about the queer community and queer activism at William and Mary in the twenty-first century.

    Scope and Contents

    Interview with Eric Peterson at the LGBT Center in New York City only about two hours after the Supreme Court rulings on DOMA and Prop 8 were made public. Through most of the recording of the interview, the listener can hear the cheers of those celebrating at the press conference across the hall from our conference room. The interview with Eric undoubtedly reflects the mood of the day, especially as Eric's recollections of his experiences as a closeted gay man at William & Mary in the 1980s contrast with the openness heralded by the Supreme Court's decisions and Eric's life as a happy, openly gay man today.

    Interview with Jesse Rude at the LGBT Center in New York City the day after the Supreme Court made public its decisions regarding the Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8. Amid continuing positive feelings from the previous day's civil rights successes, Jesse related the changes he has experienced since growing up in rural Virginia without gay role models. We discussed the gradual acceptance of his identity during his first two years at William & Mary, the people who helped him along the way, and the positive growth in his life and in American culture since he first came to William & Mary in 1993.

    Scope and Contents Interview of Samuel Turner Arrington at the LGBT Center in New York City the day the Supreme Court rulings on DOMA and Prop 8 were made public. Turner grew up in Lynchburg, Virginia, graduated from William & Mary in 2000, and lived in Norfolk until moving to New York for medical school earlier this summer. Turner, who married his partner several years ago, had largely positive experiences as an openly gay man at William & Mary and in Virginia since. His education in W&M English and Women's Studies courses as well as casual debates outside of class helped him embrace his identity. He has happily witnessed social change in Virginia and the country as a whole, and discusses the important role he believes the internet has played in propagating change.
