To most folks these days,
"roughing it" means a weekend
in the Winnebago camper with
no flush toilet.
But to almost 40 students
who went through workshops
in The Plains Pioneer Experi
ence this summer, roughing it
meant the real thing.
For five days at the beginning
of each five-week summer
session in 1973 and 74, about 20
students have cooked, slept,
worked and playedin and
around a complex of log cabins
on the grounds of the Stuhr
Museum of the Prairie. Pioneer
at Grand Island, Nebr.
The class, which is to be
nominated for the 1974 National
Association of Summer Sessions
Award for Innovative and
Creative Summer Sessions
Offerings, was created by
tJN-L Centennial Fellow Roger
'Welsch.
In an interview last week,
Welsch said the purpose of the
course, which gives six hours of
credit in English or Elementary
Education, is to jut folklore
and literature into the per
spective of the 19th century
pioneer experience.
"How can you really study
Mari Sandoz Old Jules or
Cather's O Pioneers! in an air
conditioned classroom, meeting
twice a week?" Welsch asked.
"We're not trying to duplicate
pioneer life (at the workshops),
but we do try to get into the
environment of regional liter
ature, singing the songs the
pioneers sang, eating the food
they ate and doing the work
they did."
The work part of the course,
in addition to the five day living
situation, includes writing a
substantial paper on some
aspect of folklore or regional
literature, Welsch added.
Recounting some of the
experiences students had at the
workshop this summer, Welsch
remembered one night when
"we were driven out of the
fields by a thunderstorm," and
one afternoon's half-mile walk
from the cabins to Stuhr's
railroad village in 107 degree
weather.

"We had to wade the Wood
River and use the woods on the
otherside," Welsch recalled.

"We had to keep the doors
shut even on the hottest days
so the wind wouldn't cool the
stovetop," she said.

was great."
