by Salisbury University Students (1993)

1 folder (0.1 linear feet)

In 1993, Salisbury University students were required to collect local folk material for their English class. Intrigued by the success of the Grateful Dead, Suzanne Pfuhl chose to investigate this band to understand why they could possibly appeal to people. She discovered that it had a lot to do with the band's philosophy of celebrating life, spreading happiness and interacting with their fans. Her discussions with several "Dead Heads" helped her understand and assess the attitudes of these fans.
