What kinds of activities are sponsored by the club?
A variety of field trips are arranged each year by faculty and the Anthropology Club.
- Students travel to see special
museum exhibitions, archaeological excavations in progress, attend
and participate in professional conferences, and visit social
agencies in New York City
- Students are encouraged to join
one of the study abroad programs offered by the University. Anthropological
Field Study requires students to complete a research project
in either ethnology or archaeology. The department has had an
archaeological research exchange program with Volgograd State
University in Russia for the past several years. Many archaeological
field schools both locally and internationally are available
for student participation.
- Ethnographic field study projects
have included
o studying the Iroquois at the Native American Friendship Center in Canada,
o the impact of tourism in Costa Rica,
o friendship networks in Sri Lanka.
- Archaeological field study projects
have been conducted in Italy, Bronze and Iron Age burial mounds
on the Eurasian Steppes (Russia), and local excavations in Pennsylvania
and New York.
- During the Fall 2007 semester,
the Anthropology Club is sponsoring a trip the Holocaust Museum
in Washington D.C.
