Hello Conference Attendees!
Posted around campus are 17 QR codes that link to the legend or tradition associated with that spot on campus, collected and archived by past 333 students. We’d love for those attending the conference remotely to enjoy the tour as well, so if you find a code and record your re-performance of the legends or participation in the tradition, tag @westernfolklore on Twitter or @folk_wise on Instagram, and use the #westernfolklore2022.
All the codes are outside, near signage/on exterior walls (nothing requiring entry into private spaces). The locations can be found on this map, using the key/numbers below. Bring a friend and have fun!
