OxyCorps Topics “Tags” Thesaurus

In addition to the tags assigned to each interview description in this collection exhibit, a more extensive tag thesaurus was created for use in the text of the transcripts. To facilitate examination of each interview, terms such as residential life, diversity and athletics were applied to paragraphs in which these topics were mentioned by the interviewee.
