Trials and Triumphs: UMass Dartmouth 1960 - 2006 Oral History Project
UMass Dartmouth 1960-2006: Trials and Triumph, by Fred Gifun tells the story of the university from its creation in 1960 to the present. In telling this story, the project team relied on wide participation from those whose lives have intersected with the evolution of this university. In the course of their research, 85 individuals were interviewed. These interviews are available for access through the Archives and Special Collections. Copies of the book are available in the Claire T. Carney Library (LD3234.M28 G4 2007)
It is also available for purchase in the Campus Bookstore
