Bill, thanks for the off the top ideas on using the collection with Russian
teachers, students. Those would be a good starting place. I also would like
to use the oral histories and my students oral histories to facilitate some
oral history collecting from the Russian students. In a country which is in
the process of "rediscovering" history I think the concept would be valuable.
I would love to hear any other ideas/thoughts from fellows on parts of the
collection which should be highlighted. Thanks.
