"In Class In Uniform" is an oral history project conducted by the Shared History Program at the University of Nevada, Reno. Students in the history department had the opportunity to interview veterans on their experiences in the military and as students. The interviews were compiled and transcribed for the In Class In Uniform virtual online exhibit, and a physical exhibit in museum cases is located in the Mack Social Science on campus.

The oral history project focused on three main pillars: Passion, Purpose and Persistent Action.

"Students in Dr. Watson's class did interviews on enlistment and college experience and did a sectional analysis of those two things," Amanda Buell, a student worker in the department, said. "The displays feature artifacts from the soldiers, like boots and medals."

The Shared History Program website features interviews with current students, alumni and community members who have served in the military. Its goal is to compile and share accounts of veterans who have experienced not only the rigor of military culture, but the profound impact of academic culture.

In Class In Uniform also tells the story of ROTC students who are currently training while in school.

"With the interviews, you can hear the students open up,"" Buell said. "They tell their stories about coming to the University, what made them join ROTC, what their roles are and how they feel about being an enlisted cadet while in school."

The transcribed interviews can be found on the Shared History Program virtual online exhibit. The exhibit will be on display until the spring 2015 semester when another exhibit will take its place.
