This community includes two collections that provide biographical information about present and former students, faculty, staff, and alumni. One collection contains biographical materials related to individuals as well as lists of people affiliated with the institution. The other collection contains transcripts of oral history interviews and, when available, links to digitized versions of interviews. Some of the interviews located in the second collection were harvested from the 25th and 50th anniversary oral history programs of the University of South Florida.
It is the intention of Digital Commons @ USF to comply with all U.S. and international copyright restrictions and to respect the intellectual property of all authors whose work is represented in the archive. If any individual or corporate entity has concerns about a specific item, please contact digitalcommons@usf.edu
As of July 1, 2020, the University of South Florida is officially operating under a single accreditation for the Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota-Manatee campuses. The materials in this collection relate to the USF St. Petersburg campus when it was accredited as an individual institution.
