ENScarce documents related with the studies of Pranciška Stukėnaitė (Polish Franciszka Stukienasówna) and the general situation of ethnology studies at Stephen Bathory University are held at the Lithuanian Central State Archive and the Manuscript Department of the Library of Vilnius University. Although no programs or plans of ethnology studies have been found in the archives, other documents and personal files of several graduates of the Chair of Ethnology and Ethnography show that most attention was dedicated to the recording, accumulation, sys- temisation and research of various phenomena of ethnic culture. The lecturers, particularly Cezarja Ehrenkreutzowa and Kazimierz Moszyński, were famous scholars, which gives us enough grounds to think that ethnology studies at Stephen Bathory University corresponded to the general tendencies of European ethnology of that time - they were quite liberal and were comprised of approximately 80 per cent obligatory and 20 per cent optional subjects. Stukėnaitė completed the courses in ethnology, as well as history, art history, philosophy, musicology, psychology, and pedagogy. Very few personal files of graduates of the Chair of Ethnology and Ethnography have survived in the archives. Diplomas of Master of Philosophy with examination records and performance and course assessments, Stukėnaitė’s academic record book, and the minutes of the examinations held by these and other students in 1932-1939 show what subjects and examinations she took.In the school year of 1936/37 she took eight subjects - Ethnography Seminar, Outline of European Finno-Ugric and Baltic Ethnography, History Proseminar as an Introduction to History Research, Review of the History of Poland, Readings in Prehistory, Peoples Liberation Movements in 1930-1948, Child Psychology, and Colonial Politics of European States. In the third semester she attended the Ethnography Seminar, Research on Folk Songs, Historical Geology, Roman Art During the Decline of Paganism, Aegean Culture, Basic Principles of Axiology, and Europe in the Period of the Second Empire. In the school year of 1937/38 she also studied Lithuanian and Latvian Ethnology, Archaic Greek Art, and Ancient Roman Topography; in the school year of 1938/39 - General Ethnology, Europe in the Interwar Period, From Versailles to Locarno, Psychology of Advancement, Physical Education, and took a course in musicology.Students of the final year had to attend six obligatory courses to prepare for their master’s examinations - an elementary course in Ethnography and Ethnology, an advanced course in Polish and General Ethnology (Material, Spiritual and Social Culture), Methods of Ethnological Research, Basics of Philosophy, Psychology, and an elementary course in Prehistory, instead of which Stukėnaitė took an examination in the Basics of History. Master students took the seventh examination as optional. Their diplomas contained transcripts of the courses taken: Anthropology (elementary course), Basics of History, or Basics of Slavic Philology; an elementary examination in Geology recorded in Stukėnaites diploma correlates with her studies at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Other documents held in Stukėnaites personal file are also very eloquent - her application of enrolment and the attached Curriculum vitae addressed to the Dean of the Faculty of the Humanities, her petitions to be allowed to take master’s examinations and submit her master’s thesis “Monograph on the Ethnography of Marcinkonys and the Surrounding Villages”, documents of her master’s examinations, and one handwritten answer.
