Abstract

This interview was done by Winthrop student, Debbie Mollycheck, for an article for the Johnsonian (student newspaper). Debbie Mollycheck is a Winthrop College graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in 1976 and a Master of Science in 1979 and worked for a time as a student editor for the Johnsonian. She conducted this interview with Dr. Charles B. Notess (1928-2008) who was a professor of Sociology at Winthrop College from 1975 to 1981. The subject of the interview is the international folk-dance group formed at Winthrop College through Dr. Notess’ efforts in September 1975. The group met weekly, and all students and community members were encouraged to join along. Dr. Notess discusses how he became interested in folk dance when he was in college, why he feels folk dance is important, and how it offers insight into the cultures from which the dances originate.
