Vietnam Education Programs collection
Scope and Content
The Vietnam Education Programs collection documents the various Vietnam education programs hosted by Ohio University. The collection spans from 1965 to 1972. These materials remain in fair to good condition and consist of reports and agendas. For many of the reports, third or fourth copies were discovered and removed during processing.
The entire collection consists of seven Hollinger boxes. The materials are organized alphabetically to ensure that specific programs remain in order together. Once organized alphabetically by program, they are arranged chronologically according to the month and year of the report.
This collection contains agendas for Vietnam scholars and reports for several programs. These programs include the Hamlet and Elementary Education Project, the Mara Project, the USAID/Education Program, Vietnam Education Seminars, and the Vietnam Secondary Educators Tour. Other reports included in the collection are the evaluation and planning of secondary education in South Vietnam, standardized regulations for foreign areas, and the Vietnamese "People to People" Delegation.
Most reports contain background material, project plans, itineraries, and an evaluation. Several reports also contain photographs. There are also a few pictorial reports which consist primarily of pictures that display the program's progress. Each report provides a general idea of the program and its purpose.
