Abstract

In 2004, the University of Strathclyde celebrated the 40th anniversary of the granting of its Royal Charter. To mark the merger of 1963 - 1964 and granting of the Royal Charter in 1964, the Scottish Oral History Centre in the Department of History has undertaken a project to gather testimony from staff and students from the 1940s to the 1970s. This material was gathered through questionnaire, email, and oral history interviewing, to create a permanent archive of oral testimony. The project was funded from the Principal's Strategic Fund and the archive is available for consultation through the Scottish Oral History Centre, located in the Department of History.
