Multicultural Folktales is a foundational course for the Certificate in Storytelling Program. This course fills a humanities requirement and satisfies the Cultural Diversity Awareness area for Arizona universities; therefore, the class attracts a mixture of students who just want humanities credit and those who are serious about learning all there is to know about folktales.
