Ozark Studies.... I wish I could take that class via correspondence. It is obviously not offered here in StL.

It's not just a class, it's an actual minor here at MSU (only became official on the books this year, in fact).

I looked up the Ozarks Studies curriculum on the college website. Very diverse for a minor. Looks interesting...if the college was not three hours from my doorstep, I'd take at least some of those classes. I've checked into taking some classes on local or regional history at the community college at Bentonville, Arkansas, but they don't offer them on a regular basis...and so far when they do, it does not fit into my schedule. The University of Arkansas at Fayetteville used to have a great regional studies program, but, not so much anymore. I've got enough regional material...most of it long out of print...in my home library (I'm talkin' hundreds of books) and I regularly add to the collection. Most of what I want to know I can pull out of those books...and they are great research sources for the little articles I write on Ozarks history and folklore.
