The collection contains the culminating student projects for a folklore class at the

camping, pottery, recreational fishing, bee keeping, canning, pie making, calligraphy,
home brewing, aromatherapy and alternative medicine, crochet, and mountain banjo.
Field notes, audio recordings of interviews with field consultants, tape logs, digital
images, and narrative reflections comprise the project of each student. Acquired as
part of the Southern Folklife Collection.
