Teaching Syllabi

The following syllabi are meant to illustrate the range of courses where Hurston's writings have been and are being taught. We have currently identified several undergraduate classes at both public and private institutions that make Hurston's work a central component of the course.

This list will be expanded as we identify additional university, college, and even high school AP courses that focus on Hurston's work and its cultural and literary importance.
