The collection consists of Radcliffe Written History Project questionnaires completed by eleven members of the Radcliffe College Class of 1958. The Written History Project questionnaire was adapted from questions asked by the Radcliffe College Club of San Francisco in their Radcliffe College Alumnae Oral History Project. Questions were intended to record alumnae memories of the Radcliffe College undergraduate experience and how it influenced their life choices. Questionnaires are divided into seven sections: applying to Radcliffe, arriving at Radcliffe, academics (what was it like to go to Harvard to school and be a Radcliffe woman), life as a Radcliffe student, Radcliffe and connection to the future, retrospect, and identity and connection to Radcliffe. Responses were received from Jane Reynolds Corcillo, Sandra Ragland Demson, Jean Curtis Flanders, Ann Hyde Friedman, Felicia Morris Gordon, Nancy Marvin Hardison, Marion Dusser de Barenne Kilson, Rosalind Axelrod Kochman, Ruth Anna Oeste Krauss, Nancy Adair Moffat Langston, and Diana Munson.
