| dc.description.abstract | Folklorist Ruth Olson has taught at UW Madison since 1996. She has been involved with many projects on and off campus pertaining to public folklore and ethnography. Her interview highlights the importance of folklore to UW students, departments, and the citizens of Wisconsin. Ruth is passionate about her work but plans to retire in the near future after this interview was done. She looks forward to volunteering at the Literacy Network after retirement to help people become citizens and because she believes that being an active citizen is folklore too. | en_US |
