You've encountered the silly "each XML document must have one and only one root tag" restriction. Let's see what do the XML::Rules docs say about that:

If you need to parse a XML file without the top-most tag (something that each and any sane person would allow, but the XML comitee did not), you can parse 
  <!DOCTYPE doc [<!ENTITY real_doc SYSTEM "$the_file_name">]><doc>&rea
+l_doc;</doc>

instead.

And the 

map {$_[1]->{$_}} qw( 
  Subject Course Title Description Prequisites Corequisites Requisites
  LectureHours LaboratoryHours CreditHours Flags 
)

[download]
is better written 
@{$_[1]}{qw( 
  Subject Course Title Description Prequisites Corequisites Requisites
  LectureHours LaboratoryHours CreditHours Flags 
)}

[download]
No need to map(), just slice the hash.

You may also want to add the stripspaces => 3 to ensure the whitespace around the <Class> tags is not being accumulated in the $_[1]->{_content} for the handler of the root tag.
