Historian plans project to profile Aggie generals By ELAINE ENGSTROM Battalion Reporter Sitting behind a paper-cluttered desk that is also home for a jar of Mount St. Helen’s ash, an ERA petition, and an “I Like Ike” button, is a blond, ruddy-complexioned young man. The walls in his sunny Archives office are un adorned by the diplomas found on the office walls of other professors. These walls support only two framed documents proclaiming him to be a shell back, and a member of the Order of the Golden Dragon. Dr. Terry Anderson, 34, is an assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University. He is also oral historian of the University. The documents are remnants from his Navy days in Vietnam. They symbolize his crossing the interna tional dateline and the equator. “Worldly diplomas are much more important than degrees,” he said. “I give those to my mother.” A poor student in high school, Anderson’s counse lor told him he should become a bricklayer. Instead, he joined the U.S. Navy in 1964 and later went to college on the G.I. Bill. He received three degrees — from the University of Minnesota, the University of Missouri, and Indiana University. At Indiana, Anderson first worked as an oral histo rian. Among the topics he covered were the limes tone industry and the women’s movement in In diana. Currently, Anderson is working on an oral history project called “Aggies to Generals.” He plans to interview 40 retired generals living in Texas who are graduates of Texas A&M. “We will be able to write what type of person came to A&M in the 1930s and 40s and became leaders and what their personality characteristics are,” Anderson said. “Eventually these reports will be put in the library so anyone can go and find out what Gen. Smith had to say.” Anderson also has a book to be released soon entitled “The United States, Great Britain and the Cold War.” “If you don’t publish here you perish,” Anderson said. “That’s the way it is at the top 50 universities in the country.
