Scope and Contents
The BYU Student Fieldwork Collection consists of 324 projects (in alphabetical order by author's last name) collected by Brigham Young University students in fulfillment of graded credit requirements for upper division folklore courses taught by William A. Wilson. Most items include title page, table of contents, cover essay, and several folklore items with informant, context, text (the folklore item), and collector data. The projects do not include release forms. The projects examine a wide variety of topics ranging from specific genres (like jokes, legends, belief, folksongs) to area interests (such as regional, religious, occupational, and family folklore). The register includes the item (book) number, title of the project, date of course and student name. The items are stored in archival boxes. The materials do NOT circulate. The collection is closed.
